Goat Shares, to share Raw Milk and Milk Products

Goat_Share

  • Our little mini-dairy is now sharing these wonderful raw milk and milk products with you.
  • Our blog will show you how we handle our milk, our planned bacteria
    and plate count testing etc to ensure quality milk.  We will also share
    with you on our blog what the share program is.
  • We strive to feed non-GMO feeds and a minimal of grain.  Quality alfafa and grass are the feeds we use.  In so doing, we are investigating the feeding of fodder that we hope to grow here at the farm. If this fodder plan works, the goats will have added nutrition and fresh greens 365 days a year.
  • We hold a valid Food Handler’s Permit and are very sanitary with our milk
  • Our milk is quickly chilled to Raw to Retail standards to ensure long lasting sweet tasting milk
  • We raise Nigerian Dwarf, Mini Nubian and Nubian dairy goats.
  • Our does are milked 365 days per year
  • We hope to make this a small training facility, also, to teach how to become more self-sufficient

  • Conformations that are structurally correct

Health of our Herd

  • We take the health of our herd very seriously
  • Regular hoof trimming
  • CAE negative testing yearly, if not more often
  • We do show, but not very much, to maintain health of our herd.  One never knows what is out there for disease and illness.
  • Soon we will be learning how to bacteria test our own milk; something we feel is very important
  • In Dairy Herd Improvement Milk testing, there is Somatic Cell Count per doe, monthly. this can give a strong indication if there is mastitis or other problems with the udder
  • Soon we will be learning how to fecal test our own herd, at our farm

Breeds We Raise

  • Nigerian Dwarf dairy goats
  • Mini Nubian dairy goats

Things We can do for you

  • Certified Dairy Herd Improvement Milk Tester – we can test your herd’s milk for 305 DHI and/or One-Day testing
  • Hope to soon be trained to test bacteria levels in milk, and thus will be able to test yours
  • Milk sales
