Our homestead rests in the boreal forest hills above Fairbanks in the interior of Alaska. This is our seventh year on the property. We are raising poultry and goats for the quality eggs, meat and milk they provide for our family. We are learning animal husbandry and all the realities that go along with raising our own livestock.

In the spring of two thousand and seven we shipped up six LaMancha dairy goats; two bucks and four does from Lucky Star Farm and Rockin CB Farm out of Washington. It is illegal for milk or cheese to be sold in the state of Alaska unless one is operating a certified grade A dairy. This law applies to goat or cow milk, raw or pasteurized. Recently there has been a reinterpretion of the law regarding the sale of goat and cow shares by the State Veterinarian. With goat shares the buyer signs a contract purchasing part of a goat which entitles them to a portion of the milk. We are now selling goat shares.

We are entering our fourth year of raising poultry for eggs and meat. Our laying flock consists of Ameraucanas, Sexlinks and Welsummers. Our poultry goals are to raise all the eggs and meat we can consume in addition to providing eggs and meat for close family and friends.This year was our third year raising Cornish Cross for meat. We've also raised a couple batches of turkeys. We also have a few Toulouse geese and several ducks.

We have a large garden. We aspire to grow the majority of our own vegetables as well as berries, culinary and medicinal herbs. See our Other page for more information on herd health, management practices, sales information and so forth. Please contact us with any questions you may have.
