Wanting to raise goats on small acreage and need some inspiration to get started? Raising Dairy Goats on a Small Acreage Homestead is a great way to be self sufficient. In this video you'll see Ali's goat barn layout and how she keeps goats on a small space. Goats milk is versatile and a great way to supply to be more self reliant.

We love our dairy goats. They have been an invaluable tool for rearing our children with our desired values. Let's all strive to be producers not just consumers!

I got to go see this place last April, and it was amazing how much Ali puts on a small space and is so tidy. Every where you look there is something different that has an artistic touch. Ali and her family is delightful, knowledgeable and so friendly. If you ever have a chance, you should visit. Ali told me April and May are the best months. Thank you!

It was that verse in Proverbs that convinced me to keep my goats when I thought of selling them. 💕

This was really enjoyable! I’m reading Proverbs for my daily Bible reading right now, that’s a great verse! I love how you have the keeping of milk goats down to a system! I couldn’t help but chuckle to myself, when I thought about what the neighbourhood thinks when your family takes the goats for a walk😊.

Love your goats. They are precious. Amazing what you guys have done on a half acre.

I have found your channel to be the best channel for our little 3.25 acres. You have def inspired me!!😍

I’ve been waiting for this one! Thanks, Ali!I do have more questions: How did you choose which breed? How did you know they which does you wanted? Are your goats registered? Do you think that’s a benefit? Since you don’t have a buck, how do you get your does bred? How do you do go about selling the kids- FB marketplace or word of mouth or…? What if you can’t sell them?

Sorry for all the questions. I’d love to get goats in the next couple years and don’t hear people talk about some of these things. Thanks!

Have you ever thought of selling plans for your goat barn setup? I LOVE IT! I love my goats!

[SunshineGarden-B]

What a wonderful homestead!! It's adorable to watch kids play with goats and have great time.

[lizpetruzzi]

This was great! I’ve been trying to figure out if I want dairy goats or dairy sheep. This content was a helpful overview. I’m considering mini Nubians (?) or a hair sheep like the st lacroix. Your goats are beautiful and so well kept!

We love our dairy goats also! Our saanen produces 3/4 gallon per day, it's quite remarkable. We love making chevre, kefir and mozzarella! Oh and goat ice cream in the electric ice cream maker we found at the thrift store ;) So fun!

Great video! Do you have any more videos showing your barn and hay buildings. I want to build something similar and would really like to see more of how it is framed and laid out. Thanks
