Our herd has been started from some great dairy herds: Echo Hills, Blue Oaks, Green Gables, Blackberry’s BMM, and Jardine Meadows. We have F-4, F-5, and F-7 generation does with great markings. The Miniature Dairy Goat Association (MDGA) describes the Mini Nubian as “a graceful dairy goat of mixed Asian, African and European origin, known for high quality, high butterfat milk production and the Nigerian Dwarf”.
Our legacy doe and alpha female is Rose Meadow Farms Licorice. Although she has been retired from milking, she had a strong mother instinct, quite affectionate and inquisitive. She enjoys her daily hugging and has been the “mentor” for our other young does.

She had her first freshening in May 2022 ad has shown to be a great milker and calm on the stand. She was awarded a milking star in 2022.
