Meet the Owners

Roman & Lucy Jay have had a love affair with goats throughout their lives. They now live at Las Manzanitas Eco Village which is a 10-acre off-grid ranch in the Santa Cruz Mountains above Silicon Valley. The days start and end with their goats. Their goats play a critical role at the ranch, feasting on fire abatement cuttings, and restoring the soil with their excellent fertilizer. Besides their functional role, their goats also help life make sense. After an hour of goat time, the deepest Silicon Valley stress is relieved and the most important questions of the day receive the light of clarity. Their goats teach them how to take their time, feast for health, and live as an individual within a herd, and they are excited to share this wisdom with you!
