Mari Hastings

Mari Hastings raises goats in Arizona’s Verde Valley near Phoenix. With an emphasis on uniform confirmation and sound temperaments, her program follows recognized registry guidelines, includes routine health testing, and reflects years of active participation in regional breeders’ associations.

Kids are born in a pasture-based environment where daily handling helps develop friendly, calm animals suited to family flocks. Each kid undergoes early health screenings and is offered sheltered bedding areas to ensure comfort during temperature extremes. The herd is managed using rotational grazing and balanced nutrition, with regular veterinary oversight of hoof care and parasite control. Seasonal kidding cycles are timed to local forage availability, supporting natural mothering and steady growth. Proof of vaccination status and herd health records accompany each animal, providing peace of mind for new owners. Hastings integrates sustainable land management techniques to maintain pasture health and animal welfare.
