From Maine to Arizona and back again, Margaret and Karl and their dog, Godfrey, travel across America, visiting dairy farms and goat meat ranches. They meet a colorful cast of farmers, cheese makers, breeders, and chefs. They sample cheese from all over the country, learn how to make goat cheese themselves, keep a farm, care for the animals, and learn the protocols of participating in festivals and auctions. Once again back in Maine, they have a goat-themed wedding, and go on to purchase ten acres of pasture and their own herd of goats.

A newborn is held to the window of his family's farmstead by his grandmother. He can feel the wind on his face and see all the places to love. Far off a stream glides by and a blueberry patch waits on a hilltop for eager hands on summer days.
