Melissa Hackett

Melissa Hackett runs Rock Bottom Farm, a small family farmstead in Richmond, Maine, where dairy crosses and registered goats are raised alongside kunekune pigs and free-range poultry. Richmond sits along the Kennebec River in central Maine, roughly 15 miles south of Augusta.

The farm spans 27 acres, and the operation is a true family effort — Hackett and her partner, Scott MacMaster, work the land with help from their four sons. Those looking for dairy cross goats in Maine will find a setup where the animals are raised in a hands-on, small-herd environment with close attention to the individual needs of each animal.

Rock Bottom Farm also maintains livestock guardians to watch over the herd, reflecting a practical approach to animal care on a working farmstead. The farm produces goat milk, soap, cheese, and yogurt alongside eggs and maple syrup, rooting its goat program in the rhythms of a diversified, family-run operation.
