Answering the call to create a self-sustaining farm, we jumped off into raising dairy goats (Nubian and La Mancha) for their delicious cheese, yogurt and, of course, milk. Along the way we picked up chickens for the yard eggs, ducks for pest control, and a rescue horse for "fertilizer." We already had the dogs and cats, and we aren't really sure what they are good for. Added all together it makes for a very interesting life.
