Our Purpose

to help refugee farmers produce goats for the greater Burlington (VT) ethnic market, thereby replacing 3000 goats currently imported frozen from Australia and New Zealand each year. To develop a farm that restores the land, as well as the broken spirits of community members recovering from dislocation and violence in their former home .
