Are Zoom happy hours starting to get monotonous? Is being a month into shelter-in-place making you yearn for a fresh face? Well, now you can pay Half Moon Bay animal sanctuary Sweet Farm to have a goat, llama or other farm animal make an appearance in your Zoom meeting.

The service, called Goat 2 Meeting, has grown popular among work happy hours and corporate meetings since it launched last month, according to Business Insider. More than 300 requests, some from Fortune 500 companies and tech startups, have already poured in. A 20 minute-virtual private tour of the farm for six people costs $65; a 10 minute-corporate meeting cameo for unlimited guests costs $100. Or, ball out on goats for a 25-minute, $250 corporate meeting virtual tour for unlimited guests.

Sweet Farm cofounder Anna Sweet told Business Insider that Goat 2 Meeting is helping the farm recover some of the revenue it has lost due to coronavirus shelter-in-place orders — part of their funding usually comes from in-person visits, which have now become impossible.

However, Sweet Farms is also paying it forward by offering free virtual field trips to schools and nonprofits across the country.
