Initially started as a 4-H project for the children, the herd consisted of three breeds: Nubians, Alpines, and LaManchas. Today, only Alpines and LaManchas are raised. All of our dairy goats are hand-raised and fed pasturized milk. Most of our does are bred by artificial insemination or with our private bucks. Please inquire for possible boarding and stud service.
