As we work on our house, we dream of what our property will be like when completed and what animals we might raise. One animal we have considered is goats--they are a managable size and don't supply a super-sized quanity of milk. On the down side you hear about what a hard animal they are to cage and their stubborn personalities.
Last week in a paper there was a article inviting locals to "Victoberfest" at
Victory Hill Farm, where they raise dairy goats and make goat milk cheese. Wow!! Just what we needed--a place to see how others keep, feed, and raise their goats. Victoberfest got marked on our calendar right away!
What fun Victoberfest was!! They had goats, pigs, chickens, horses, and lots to see and do. We toured the farm and found the goats to be a lot of fun and it didn't look like they had any trouble keeping them caged. It was fun to imagine our property like theirs someday. Maybe we'll goat for it too!!
