La Casa

As horse enthusiasts and Tucson natives, we are no strangers to livestock care. We started our small herd of goats in the summer of 2009 after dabbling with chickens. We have built our herd upon three does from Sean and Karen Ruddy's farm, Jolly Roger Goats, in Sierra Vista, Arizona.

We drink our goat's milk and have enjoyed making and eating fresh cheeses including chevre, cream cheese, queso blanco, ricotta and even mozzarella. The milk has been wonderfully sweet and the whole family enjoys our homemade dairy products.

We also have two mustangs, chickens and a few dogs that help with rodent control and livestock guarding. The whole family is involved with animal and house hold care, which helps with our very busy schedule of school, music and gymnastics.

We're just hitting the tip of the iceberg of goat knowledge, but would be happy to share with you all that we can!
