Welcome!
Here at Heart's Pasture, we are proud Nigerian Dwarf goat owners. Our herd of goats has always been the heart of our farm. Any day is a good day to smile at their high-spirited, yet gentle personalities, and it's because of them that we always have plentiful amounts of nutritious raw milk and cheese. Each spring we offer future generations of kids that will become the heart of other farms.
Breeding Philosophy
Our herd consists of a core group of naturally raised Nigerian dwarf goats that come from strong performance pedigrees and exhibit consistent, quality milk production. With a focus on diet and husbandry as the key to healthy offspring which bear our Heart's Pasture namesake, our goal is to provide our customers with a kid that has a healthy, vigorous foundation, part of a generation of goats from Heart's Pasture that will be prolific milkers and worthy performers for homesteads all around the country.
Rearing Philosophy
The kids born on our farm are dam raised to around 12 weeks of age. During that time, they have access to as much milk as they want. We are sure to handle the kids daily so that they establish a positive relationship with humans. As they transition from their mother's milk, they are given access to high quality hay and woodland pasture walks which consists of fresh, spring forest browse. Their minerals, offered free choice, consist of free choice kelp mixed with a combination of different organic or wildcrafted herbs. We use a herbal parasite mix that we make into treat balls as standard practice to keep parasites at bay. By the time 12 weeks arrives, they are full of health and ready to make the transition to their new homes.
Nature-Raised Goats
With dark, sleek coats, creamy milk, and a strong stature, a Heart's Pasture goat stands out from the rest. Want more information on what makes us different from everyone else?

Kinna X Eminence
|
|
As a first freshener, Kinna produces more pounds of milk, protein, and fat than any other goat on our farm. She became our "herd queen", both in personality and production, and possesses excellent body conformation. This will be her second freshening.
Eminence has grown into a stellar-looking buck. He now has a fully developed body conformity and a royal pedigree to match.
This is a breed pairing of our top doe and top buck. Anyone looking to purchase a doeling from this pair should expect true body conformation, prolific milk potential, and an excellent udder for hand milking. Any buckling should be a future herd sire with body conformation expressions and milking genes.

This is a fantastic repeat pairing. Star is slightly tall, while still within breed standard, and has ideal teats, a hand milkers dream!

Goat Sales and Reservation Policy
As noted, we maintain a reservation list for future kids born at Heart's Pasture. It's what gives you, the buyer, peace of mind when choosing the kid(s) you want. A reservation is not a commitment; it simply gets you a spot in line. Once a chosen kid is born, we contact you with updates, and a non-refundable deposit of 50% will be due.
Regarding your choices, we are happy to get to know your goals and work with you on choosing a goat kid from a breeding pair that will best fit your needs. If you need to goal plan, we can strategize together about that as well.
Realize that we can not guarantee to you that a specific doe will conceive or produce the desired sex. For situations such as those, we will do our best to let you know if there are any other available spots in line for other kids.
