Kato En Farm

Kato En Farm raises cashmere goats in South New Berlin, NY, located in Chenango County and the Central New York region near Binghamton. Nadya Pena has been breeding and caring for small ruminants for over a decade and maintains registration with national goat associations and routine health testing for her herd.

It follows a rotational grazing schedule that supports pasture health and provides daily enrichment through gentle handling and supervised pasture time. A family-run operation, the farm emphasizes sustainable practices and often shares breeding updates through local agricultural fairs and educational visits for aspiring breeders.

Customers note the calm temperament of the goats and the clear communication on herd health concerns. Its well-ventilated barn includes separate kidding pens and comfortable bedding, ensuring goats experience low-stress seasons. Fiber harvesting follows best practices for animal welfare, with combing scheduled after the spring molt to collect fine undercoat fibers without distress.
