01 Why Goats?

Our herd is comprised solely of Nigerian Dwarf dairy goats.  This breed of goat is very small, requires significantly less space and produce less manure than other dairy animals.  They are the smallest of the dairy goats but have the highest butterfat which is ideal for small-batch cheesemaking! 

02 Our Philosophy

Our farm's first focus is on happy, healthy goats. The goats have access to fresh air, fresh pastures and hay.  Milk and cheese production is seasonal and dictated by what is best for the goats.  The herd is confirmed negative for CAE and Johnes.  The herd is an Accredited Tuberculosis-free and Certified Brucellosis-free.

03 What is Unique?

Our farmstead, small-batch cheese is made from our own milk using traditional techniques.  The underlying flavor is directly impacted by the goats’ diet.  The complex and unique flavor of our cheese is derived from our farm’s local terroir. A diet of New Country Organic feed and a specialized pasture mix of Cowpea, Oats, Chicory, Crimson Clover, Red Clover, Alfalfa, Hairy Vetch, Daikon Radish, Millet, Turnips and Ryegrass provide forage for optimal health and enhanced cheese flavor.

We are members of the above organizations and the 
Georgia Dairy Goat Breeders Association (GDGBA)
