Hickory Lake Farm

Hickory Lake Farm breeds Kiko goats in Pinson, TN, serving Hardeman County and western Tennessee near Jackson. Amy and Nate Bechtol have over a decade of experience raising Kiko goats and work with recognized breed associations to register each animal and follow recommended health screening protocols. Their herd grazes on rotational pasture with ample shade and fresh water, and young goats are socialized from birth.

Set around a peaceful lake, the farm’s rolling pastures support hoof health and natural foraging habits. The Bechtols embrace sustainable land management practices, including forage rotation and parasite monitoring, to maintain herd vitality. Local small farmers often praise the goats’ calm temperaments and sturdy conformation, qualities that reflect careful breeding selections. Clear communication about lineage and health records accompanies every kid, reflecting the farm’s commitment to transparency. With modest herd sizes, the Bechtols prioritize individual attention and maintain detailed records on breeding outcomes.
