I know this is probably a little off topic of what normally gets posted on this forum but does anyone know a place around Anchorage or the valley that sells goat milk. I want to try to make some goat cheese. That stuff is expensive in the stores. Thanks for any help.

Call the UAF extension service in Palmer, they have a list of all farms that sell to the public. I do think there are a couple people selling goat products. I don’t think raw milk is legal to sell for human food so you may be told it’s for pet food only. Wink wink
Good luck.Andy

There's a family that sells goat cheese, goat milk and a few other dairy/produce items off the side of the road at the intersection of Trunk and Bogard in Wasilla. I can't vouch for the goat products (hate goat cheese myself) but the tomato plants and other produce were great.Gun-Steuerung arbeitet für uns!

Not an odd ball request, well maybe it is folks say I'm a little weird, anyway I've made my own cheese at home and happen to own Goats. Mine are meat goats and will be harvested as chevon(7-12 months of age) but I had briefly toyed with wintering them over for milk and baby meat goats. I made "farmers cheese" out of store bought whole milk as a test to see if it would be worth making. The cheese was good but it took allot of milk! I'll make it again for guests as a "novelty" food but I don't think Kraft cheese has anything to fear from me.

The goat dairy products available in the grocery store are just plain gross and have about as much in common with Farm fresh goat dairy products as Gouda dose with processed cheese slices.......in other words nothing! Fresh goats milk is very sweet and lacks the gamey undertone of the store bought stuff. For that matter unpasteurized cows milk is worlds tastier as well. Difference is goats milk doesn't need to be pasteurized. Apparently goats are immune to most of the ickies we don't want for cows milk......like mastitis for example.
Here is a Pic of my Goats Mow and Stew. One is named for the job they are doing now(mowing the lawn) the other is named for were they are headed when the lawn care is done for the year.BHA Member

Rick, How do you keel 'em at the end of the year? I honestly always wondered about that. We purchased a calf one year as a boy and I went with my dad to pick it up. Their answer was a 38 special to the back of the head. It certainly was effective though quite loud right there in the barn. That was some GOOD beef though!
