United States2 months ago - Future Homesteader
Hi!! I’ve just found your show and have been listening to learn more for our own future farming ventures. We plan to have goats to help clear our land and your show is helping me learn all I can before we jump in. I really love that some of them are short podcasts for when I only have a little time. Thank you and I’ll keep listening
Apple Podcasts5Tiffany KordenbrockUnited States4 months ago - Same path
We’ve been down the same basic path as you. We did 4H,ABGA, which my adult daughter still does and loves. I have moved on to a Spanish herd with a few terminal Boer crosses. My 300 nannies are less stress than 30 show goats😊. Anyway, each to their own but your advice is solid.
