Patricia Stewart

Patricia Stewart has been raising dairy crosses at Hames & Axle Farm in Ashburnham, Massachusetts, since the mid-1990s, with the farm sitting about an hour northwest of Worcester in north-central Massachusetts. Her herd centers on Nigerian dwarf goats selected for health, personality, structural correctness, and production — a breeding goal shaped partly by years of participation in the Dairy Herd Improvement Association milk-testing program.

The farm's program prioritizes longevity and balance, with most animals living well past ten years. Intact animals are registered with the American Dairy Goat Association or the American Goat Society, and the herd has maintained a clean CAE-testing record across more than two decades. Stewart also preserves older Nigerian dwarf genetics by drawing exclusively on bloodlines registered with the American Goat Society before 2005.

For anyone seeking dairy crosses or Nigerian dwarf goats in Massachusetts, Hames & Axle Farm represents a long-running small-holder operation with a clear, documented breeding philosophy and a history of mentoring new goat owners.
