Welcome to Silver Prairie Farm!
We raise a small herd of registered dairy goats in Northern Illinois. We started our herd with two unregistered alpine nanny goats, just to have as pets on our small farm. That's when we fell in love with goats. The following year we bought a dry yearling Oberhasli doe and when we went to pick her up we ended up also buying a pregnant oberhasli doe. We raised Oberhasli for a few years, we bought an Oberhasli Buck (Starlit Hills Romeo) as a sweet little buckling who soon grew up into a big, beautiful breeding buck who is now the sire to many goats in our herd. After a few years of raising Oberhasli's we decided to buy another breed, we went with alpine and fell in love. We bought a small alpine doe form a farm called Early Rise Acres and after getting that doe we decided that was the breed we wanted to raise. Slowly we have been growing our herd of high pedigree purebred Alpines, in addition to our alpines we raise a few Oberhasli, Nubian, and Recorded Grade does as well. |
