Building Community Through Goat Farming
Karen Gallie and Janet Groth both had an interest in goat dairy farming but where can a person go to learn such things? Both found Pat Tukey’s The Good Shepherd’s Farm, a host farm of Worldwide Opportunities in Organic Farms (WWOOF).
Volunteer helpers like Groth and Gallie can exchange work for knowledge through Worldwide’s host farming community learning about organic livestock farming with a hands on approach. Programs like the one Tukey is involved in are helpful not only for the volunteers but allow more time for the farm owner’s to market and expand their products while broadening the public’s awareness of organic methods.
