Our very first goat - 'Letty' purchased in May 2004

Goat keeping - Our Journey

Some of our 'fondation' girls - Namoi, Itty, Mya, Esther, Ruth (Jade, Latte, & Scarlet seen in the back)

As of fall 2019, we no longer raise or keep dairy goats. Our herd was dispersed, the farm sold, and we moved to a smaller town a short distance away. As several of our children went off to college, started careers and/or married we had fewer hands to help with the work involved and found the farm difficult to maintain. Our goats are missed and forever will have a place in our hearts. They have given us experiences over the years that will not be quickly forgotten. We continue to make our goat milk soaps from fresh goat milk purchased from neighboring herds.

Starting in May of 2004 - the Nubian breed was our main herd focus for their delightful temperaments and wonderful tasting milk. For a few years we also raised Kinders and dabbled in Alpines, and ended in Mini-Nubians. Leaving us with a mixed combination, but all in all - fantastic animals. We started in 2004 with just 2 goats - a doe and her kid, which quickly grew to 8, to 12 to 28 within the first 3 years. Soon after we had a herd of 50+ head. In later years we cut back to a much smaller herd size of 10-15 goats.

We love our goats !

If you ever purchase a goat or kid from us we always love to hear updates on how they are doing - the good and the bad. We don't know everything in goat raising but always love to 'talk goats' and know how steep of a learning curve your first goats can be! Feel free to shoot us an e-mail anytime with your goat questions, re-selling, and/or any updates - we'd love to hear from you!
