Benefits of Dairy Goat Farming

Raising dairy goats has many benefits. Goats are easy to care for, have a low environmental impact, and produce a high-quality milk. Not only that, but goats provide companionship and can be trained to do a variety of tasks.

Goat milk is especially beneficial for people who are lactose intolerant because it contains much less lactose than cow’s milk. It is also rich in essential vitamins and minerals, making it a healthier alternative to cow’s milk.

Goat milk soap is a great way to use goat milk. It is luxurious, gentle on the skin, and has many beneficial properties. It can help to soothe skin irritation, reduce acne, and improve the overall health of your skin.

Nigerian Dwarf Goats stand approximately 21" high and weigh about 75 lbs. Their small size makes them easy to handle and they make excellent 4-H and FFA projects. Our does produce 1-2 quarts of milk per day. The milk is high in butter fat making it excellent for cheese, butter, and soap. The breed is naturally gentle and calm. Our kids are handled daily and we host goat yoga, so they are especially friendly.

Dairy goats are amazing creatures. They are intelligent, gentle, and have a strong bond with their owners. Goats are also very social animals. They enjoy the company of other goats and love to play.

Honey Down Farm's Soap Making Process

At Honey Down Farm, we have perfected the art of soap making. 

Our process starts by measuring goat milk and freezing. We freeze the milk to prevent scolding. While the milk is freezing, we measure and milk oils. Once the oils are heated we allow them to cool to room temperature. During that time we mix lye into the frozen goat milk. This is a key step, because the lye needs to be fully dissolved in the goat milk. Once it's fully dissolved we allow the mixture to cool to room temperature. After the oils and goat lye mixture are cooled to room temperature we mix and add essential oils/fragrance. We then pour the mixture into a soap mold and let it sit for 24 hours.

Once the soap has hardened, we remove it from the mold and let it cure for 4-6 weeks. After the curing period is complete, we package the soap and it is ready for sale.
