You’re right Marie! My mistake. We will see kids begin to arrive in late May and early June. Thanks.

“The nucleus of our herd is in place and the building of barns and breeding of goats begins this week,” said Sonny Simonian, Dairy Operations Manager for Cypress Grove. “This is an exciting time – kids will begin to arrive in mid-May

Breeding would have had to have begun last month to have kids arriving by mid May. There was something wrong with that statement. 5 month gestation on goats. If breeding began this week, kids would not arrive until mid June…do these people know anything about goats?

I wish them the best of luck…it’s one of the hardest jobs there is. I also hope that the ” proven innovations and long-accepted best practices” (that weren’t developed in our climate btw) will work here on the northcoast…It’s an experiment we are all watching.

It’s good to see that CG learned from the last incident, and that they are being very open about their plans. I look forward to this new establishment.

Now maybe they can make their cheese a little bit cheaper for us locals living local to their local farms! Delicious but too pricey, guys!
