Bittersweet Farms

Bittersweet Farms breeds fainting (myotonic) goats in Center, MO, serving Ralls County near Hannibal. Owner Jennifer Torrence has been raising goats for over a decade, and she maintains membership in the American Dairy Goat Association while following recommended health testing protocols. The herd lives in spacious pastures, with round-the-clock access to shelter and fresh water, and each kid is socialized by hand from birth. She follows a structured kidding schedule to ensure smooth births and prompt care.

Jennifer’s approach to goat care focuses on balanced nutrition, gentle handling, and early exposure to varied environments. Many of the adults have earned titles in local dairy shows, reflecting consistent selection for temperament and udder quality. Bittersweet Farms originated on a small family homestead and continues to follow time-tested practices that prioritize herd health and gentle handling. Visitors note the peaceful farm atmosphere and the attentive nature of the goats.
