Good milk cost Good money! With milk prices sky high at around $11/gallon for fresh milk, urban environmentalist and budget shoppers alike are looking for alternatives to get their dairy.  In fact 

A GOAT NAMED CLEM

In March of this year (2016) we acquired our first dairy goat. Sister Elizabeth, named her Clem. Clem was only 3 months old when she arrived, the age in-which a goat becomes a kid or doeling and no longer needs to drink their mothers milk. She was small enough to fit in the backseat of our Prius which made her easy to drive around when doing errands. People look at you different when they realize your "dog" is a goat". But who cares, a goat produces milk and a dog, well...

 There are many benefits to owning a diary goat. First they are much easier to manage compared to a large dairy cow. This creates a benefit because goats produce a generous amount of manure that will be used on our farm for fertilizer. Secondly dairy goats eat unwanted weeds from our pasture area and clear out the land for tilling the following season. Thirdly dairy goats make great companions, they are very friendly and if treated well will be approachable by people. The most important benefit of owning a dairy goat is obviously the fact that they can produce scrumptious, delicious, fresh milk daily. In fact, a dairy goat produces 1/2- 1 1/2 gallons of milk a day.  And finally, for those most concern with the bottom line. Below, demonstrates how you too will benefit from a dairy goat. Even when you have your first baby, keep in mind this.
