The Fabulous Beekman Boys


Have you ever heard of them?  They are Josh Kilmer-Purcell and Brent Ridge and they have a show on Planet Green called the Fabulous Beekman Boys!  They were two professional city boys who gave up life in the Big Apple to move to this lovely Georgian mansion, built in 1802 and turned it into an organic goat farm.  They produce goat milk, cheese and soaps among other things.  They have employed so many local craftsman (including blacksmiths to make their flatware collection) and farmers they have almost single handedly turned around a depressed community.  They sell their wares through their store  1802 Mercantile!
