Today I’m going to be taking a deep dive into one of the more controversial topics on the homesteading front. Although both dairy goats and milk cows are viable options, find out why Christian and I eventually moved to milk cows and sold our goats. Learn the main differences when it comes to cost, pasture space, transportation, and overall taste of milk. If you are considering entering the world of home dairy or contemplating making a switch, this episode will provide everything you need to make an informed decision.
Some highlights from the episode:
- The pro’s of owning dairy goats
- Why zoning is important to consider
- Why goats are a challenge to keep fenced in
