We launched our brand-new Etsy store at the end of 2023! We hope to use the Etsy platform to sell our goat's milk products (soaps, lotions, body butters, and so on). Keep an eye out for those, as we hope they hit the store in early 2025. 

Your support means the world to us and all of our animals! We all give a big thank you! While you wait for our goat milk products, feel free to explore our collection of gear tailored for gardeners, homesteaders, homeschoolers, and all types of learners – because we appreciate every kind of education!

Check out our blog post on what you should consider before bringing home a goat: https://gunnerhillfarm.com/blog/f/what-to-consider-before-bringing-home-your-goat?blogcategory=Goats

Caring for goats involves providing them with a nutritious diet, clean water, and a comfortable living environment. Goats also need regular veterinary care, including vaccinations, deworming, and hoof trimming. Additionally, it's important to provide goats with adequate space to graze and exercise, as well as shelter from harsh weather conditions. Building a strong bond with your goats through regular interaction and affection can also contribute to their overall health and well-being.

In addition to the ADGA website (links below), we found these following sites to be helpful. It's useful to reference multiple sources to make sure you're following the best advice for your herd.
