modern-day hunter-gather, to a simple goat herder.
Goats have taught me what it means to be connected to the food I eat and what it means to be a steward of the land. Raising goats offers a healthy, local, and sustainable food source. They also contribute to land regeneration and are highly sociable and trainable-making for a herd of energetic and amusing companions.
