The goats coming in for afternoon milking
|
We are a small family owned and run goat dairy farm and cheesemaking operation. Our intent is to:
• Create a sustainable lifestyle and business built on the cornerstones of respect for consumer, land and animals
• Create a quality product that promotes the concept and commitment to sustainable agriculture
• Support local businesses, thereby contributing to the identity and strength of our community, which is deeply connected to agriculture
We were honored to receive two national awards for our cheeses in 2006, as well as being listed in Wine Spectator Magazine as producing one of the "100 Greatest" Cheeses in the world in 2008, and were part of a Vermont cheese story in the November 2009 issue of Martha Stewart Living magazine!

The Land is situated in the southern portion of the beautiful Champlain Valley of Vermont. It consists of open fields, wetland, and wooded pastures. We manage the land organically while practicing a rotational grazing system to extend nature's resources as well as to offer the goats a nutritious forage. This also means that we do not use any herbicides, pesticides, or commercial fertilizers.
When Greg and Hannah aren't milking goats or making cheese they can be found in their painting studio. Check out their oil paintings at Blue Ledge Gallery
