Tom Patten draws on his lifelong experience on family farms to maintain a focus on solid hoof care and balanced nutrition. Breeding stock comes from bloodlines known for mothering instincts and sturdy frames, and each kid receives individualized attention from birth. Routine veterinary checks and a rotational grazing schedule support overall herd health and pasture sustainability. Each goat is evaluated before transition to a new home to ensure it meets established breed standards. Visitors comment on the relaxed atmosphere and the goats’ gentle nature as evidence of thoughtful husbandry.
