Goat’s Milk: The “Greatest Of All Time”

Monday, August 3, 2009

Three powerhouses in the caprine dairy industry have teamed to boost goat milk to its rightful place as the Greatest Of All Time — G.O.A.T. a phrase usually claimed by tennis champions.

Mary Keehn of Cypress Grove Chevre, Laura Howard, aka “Laloo” of Laloo’s Goat’s Milk Ice Cream, and Jennifer Bice of Redwood Hill Farm & Creamery are spreading a message of goat goodness.

The G.O.A.T Girls, as they call themselves, are pioneers in their fields and after years spent developing their businesses they’ve embarked on a campaign to teach America what we already know:

Goats are green and good for the planet because they literally have a smaller carbon “hoof-print” than cows. Goats require less energy when it comes to food and amounts of land needed for them to thrive.

Goats are a perfect addition to any family farm. As for nutrition, well, heh, goat milk simply is superior to cow’s milk and tens of millions of goat milk-drinking children worldwide will tell you that.

Goat milk. The other white milk. Good for you. Good for the planet.

Editorial Disclaimer: Mary Keehn’s Midnight Moon made Martha Ann fall in love with goat cheese. Martha Ann remembers where she was and who she was with when he handed her a piece of Midnight Moon and said, “You’re going to want more of this.”
