Raising goats for milk is easier than you may think. However, it's a huge undertaking not for the weather wimp. So there it is, my weakness among many yet to even be discovered. When it's like a fridge outside, I lament ever getting a goat. For one week in dead winter when services shut down because Portland has one snow plow, I say cheese ;D That being said, personal food security is a concern of mine. I get my kelp, baking soda, goat minerals, organic diamond v yeast, and other amendments at Concentrates, inc. next to the Ross Island Bridge. To learn from my mistakes, come to Pistils Nursery on Mississippi in September. To learn from a book, I recommend Natural Goat Care by Pat Coleby.
