Nicole Housel

Violet Horizons Farm is Nicole Housel's small home-based operation in Hemet, California, raising dairy crosses in the Inland Empire region southeast of Los Angeles. The farm grew out of a pursuit of self-sufficiency, starting with just a couple of home milkers before expanding into a registered herd.

The Nigerian dwarf does are registered with the American Dairy Goat Association (ADGA), with the breeding program focused on milk production and easy kidding. The Boer side of the program, registered with the American Boer Goat Association (ABGA), uses artificial insemination to access a broader pool of genetics without keeping a buck on property. When selecting Boer crosses, the focus falls on length, width, muscle, and levelness, along with correct bite, good pigment, sound feet, and proper teat structure.

Herd health is managed with strong biosecurity protocols, and the animals are tested annually for caseous lymphadenitis, caprine arthritis encephalitis, and Johne's disease, with all results consistently negative. Breeding does are also tested for Q fever. For anyone searching for dairy cross goats for sale in Southern California, Violet Horizons Farm offers a program grounded in ADGA performance standards and careful selection.
