How long have you been in business?
We have been raising, showing and selling goats for over 17 years. The law did not allow for the sale of raw milk or cheese products.
Until Montana passed the food choice act a couple of years ago, Montanans could not sell or give away their milk products. This wonderful act was passed allowing us to provide the public with these wonderful healthy products.
