Upcoming Meetings:
June - no meeting
July 9 - 1:00 pm potluck lunch followed by a short meeting and then the program. Hosted by Black Doe Farm, Leicester, NC - Stephanie Buckner. Many new goat owners wonder about the things they should have on hand if a catastrophe happens. Some of us have been in the middle of a catastrophe and have reached out for help from other breeders. This program will be a gathering of minds on what fellow goat breeders have on hand to treat or prevent illness, injury, disease or to be prepared in the event of a difficult delivery or even a natural disaster. What is your "go to" mediation or supply you like to have on hand? Bring your kit, ideas and experience as we share what has worked for us.
