Goat Milk

The new milk stand Joe built for me!

Our goats milk will be available by the quart starting March 8th at the Farmer's Market!

It is labeled NOT FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION as required by law. It can be used for pets, making cheese, or even making soap.

Cost is $6.00 per QUART plus a $1.00 deposit on the jar and lid. When you come back to get more, bring me back the jar AND the lid and you will just pay the $6.00.

We have already been asked if we plan on having a "goat share" program and at this time we will not be offering this - maybe in the future.

Our milk will be treated with the utmost care and sanitation as our family plans on drinking it and our kids gave it the thumbs up yesterday with their 1st try of it!
