I love the "fancier" goat cheeses but still
nothing beats good old fashioned squeaky curds

Update: Cooper & Josh

Hi there! Today is Coop and Josh's birthday and they are doing great. We thought you might want to see some recent pictures. They love eating fresh blueberries from the bush and maple leaves and whatever else they find while on nature walks. They get along great with the pugs, chickens and cats. Cooper(red collar) is our mischievous goat and Josh(blue collar) is our obedient goat but both are absolutely adorable. We love these little guys so much. Thank you for letting us adopt them!

From Sophia and her big sister Julia

"Happy Birthday!" to these sweet boys - 1 year old

Trillium's Kidding 2017

Trillium's sweet triplets

Capsand Creamery Trillium (x Indigo Creek Apollo) kidded triplets on 13 August 2017: 2 doelings, 1 buckling.  She had an extended break as she turned out not to be bred last year.  This year BioPryn confirmed her pregnancy, and they are cuties!

Nellie's Kidding 2017

first set of quints!

After quads as a FF, 2nd freshener Sugar Moon O Coriander "Nellie" (x Indigo Creek Apollo) kidded quints on 11 August 2017!  5 babies: 2 doelings, 3 bucklings.  They inherited their daredevil streak from their mother.  She hardly slowed down during her pregnancy though "Nellie's Belly" was a force to be reckoned with.  No assistance necessary, quick delivery and 5 healthy babies on the ground - Coriander is amazing!
