Weeping Willow Farm

Weeping Willow Farm Members of American Dairy Goat Association & Farm to Consumer Legal Defense Fund. ADGA reg oberhasli & alpine dairy goats & small apiary.

We practice natural stewardship with our land & livestock. Offering milk, soaps, caramels, honey, & beeswax products. We are a small family-run dairy goat farm located in Floyd County, VA, focused on breeding high quality ADGA registered American Oberhaslis, Purebred Oberhaslis, Chestnut Oberhaslis, American Alpines, and Oberhasli-Alpine Experimentals. We breed for heavy production, long lactation

, and health & hardiness. Our herd is fully tested, rotationally grazed/browsed, and as naturally raised as possible. We offer dairy herdshares with the raw milk produced from our herd, as well as natural goat milk soaps and skin care. We sell locally at farmers markets, festivals, and small businesses. Periodically, we also provide dairy goat-keeping classes, cheese making classes, and soap making classes here on the farm. We look forward to meeting you and love sharing our passion with the community!

Make sure you come out to the Floyd Farmers Market today to say farewell to our daughter, Danika! We leave early tomorrow morning to bring her to the cattle ranch in Montana she’ll be interning at, stopping at national parks along the way. She’ll be absent from the market for the next few months, but you should see her again around the Christmas season! So stop by our table and give her some good luck wishes and offers of prayer- it will mean the world to her!❤️ She has grown quite close to our wonderful town of Floyd through this market!🥰

We’ve had a good number of you reach out to us, asking if our products will still be available while we are on our trip for the next 3 weeks . Good question! And the answer is yes…. And no.
Yes, meaning that you will see our son, Nathan, at the Floyd farmers market every Saturday, still selling all of our regular products. (So thankful for him!!) You will also find our milk, eggs, and caramels in the farm fridge right here on our farm all day every day. No, meaning there will be no cheese or yogurt available while we are away. And our soaps and honey will only be available at the markets-no farm stand will be open at this time. Also, the caramels are first come first serve while we are gone. Since I’m not there to continue making them, once they are sold out, they are sold out until we are back. I’d like to think I made enough to hold everyone over though! ❤️
We are so incredibly thankful to our son and daughter-in-law, Jakob and Hannah, who will be caring for the farm while we are gone. They live on the premises and none of this work is new to them, so we are quite content in having them take over for us!❤️
So if you happen to swing by the farm to pick up some eggs or what have you, make sure to say hello to Jakob and Hannah and their sweet baby, if you see them out and about!

***And yes, this picture is of a basket full of goat milk caramels! They are heading off tomorrow to be a part of a 50th wedding anniversary celebration. What a wonderful event to be celebrating! We are so grateful to be included in something so very worth celebrating!***

Our view from the “office” for the next few days until we head out west to see some very different views😍🐐❤️ Did you know goats are similar to dogs, as in they come when called? It takes some training, of course-just like dogs. But they’re rather quick learners! We have a particular way of calling them—-almost sing-songy sounding—and they drop what they’re doing and come right home. No matter how far out in the woods they are. They call back to us too-while running home.❤️ You can’t help but love these sweet goats!

Homemade goat milk butter… yum! From start to finish, it’s actually not that hard to do, and not really time consuming either!
Do you know what’s even better though?? Making herbed or cinnamon butter!!!!
How, pray tell? Here’s the recipes we use:

Herbed butter

*1 cup butter, softened to room temp
*2 T fresh parsley, 1 T fresh thyme or oregano, 1 T fresh chopped chives, 3/4 teaspoon salt (only if your butter is unsalted), 1/4 teaspoon fresh cracked peppercorn, and atleast a teaspoon of fresh minced garlic. (Obviously, you can switch up the herbs to any herbs of choice! But always include the garlic. Because garlic.)

Stir up real well. Use parchment paper or plastic wrap to roll up into logs. Refrigerate for up to one month or freeze for up to six months.

Cinnamon Butter (yum!!!!!)

1/2 cup softened room temp butter
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup confectioner sugar (if you don’t want that much sugar in your butter, just add a bit more honey to replace it)
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 pinch salt (unless you’re using salted butter)

Beat all ingredients except for salt together. Add salt & beat some more. Taste and adjust ingredients to your liking. Place in bowl and cover. (Because it was blended rather than stirred, it has more of a whipped texture, so not as easy to wrap up into logs.)
Lasts in the fridge for up to a month or frozen for up to 6 months.
Absolutely amazing on homemade cinnamon bread, pancakes, and waffles!!

*Fun fact: while we don’t offer goat milk butter to our customers yet, we have big plans to start in the future! Until then, I’m always willing to answer any questions you have on how to make your own butter.❤️🧈

Make sure you welcome our son, Nathan, to the market when you see him! He’s training under our daughter, Danika, to take over for her for a few weeks while we bring her out West to start her internship at a cattle ranch in Montana. He’s worked markets for us before, but never the Floyd Farmers Market, so feel free to give him your best Floyd-greetings when you see him! We love him dearly, and we’re sure you will too!❤️

This week’s recipe? Well, it’s not quite a recipe, but more of a suggestion of sorts. For those of you who purchase goat cheese from us (also known as chèvre) I’m going to share with you all the many ways we love to season our cheeses for our charcuterie boards! (Because when you make goat cheese for a living, any potluck you’re invited to ends up with a charcuterie board of said cheeses😊)
Here is a list of Weeping Willow Farm’s absolute favorite seasoning blends to go on or in our goat cheese:
* garlic and fresh dill
* jalapeño and bacon
* pesto (basil or garlic scape!)
* drizzled honey with dried cranberries and/or roasted pecans
* hot pepper jelly
* fig jelly
* drizzled honey with hot pepper flakes
* blueberry, honey, and lemon (with graham crackers! Yum!!)
* everything but the bagel seasoning with a little olive oil drizzled on top
* chive and onion
* a little bit of cream blended in to make it a nice cream cheese mixture to spread on bagels

And how do you incorporate these seasonings into your cheese that you get from us? Oh, the ways! Get your hands involved and roll your cheese into balls, then roll these balls into your herbs. Pour/sprinkle/layer the herbs/jelly/honey directly on top of your cheese disc. Stir it all in. Blend it in your blender. Do a little of all four. The options are endless! ❤️🧀

** Did you know you can order your cheese from us ahead of time for special events? We actually prefer it that way, as it takes a whole 24 hours to make goat cheese and I can’t always guarantee we will have it readily available-as it’s one of the first things to disappear from our farm fridge. Don’t forget a Herdshare is needed to purchase our goat cheese. Contact us to find out how!**

Oh, the sweet, sweet smell of our summer goat milk soap, “Backyard Orchard”! And when I say sweet, I mean that quite literally! Think pear, cherry, apple, and berries all together in one lathering bar of skin-cleaning goodness! And it looks pretty sweet, too!🐐🍏🍐🍓🫐🍒🧼

When your farmhands are also your hiking companions❤️… (yes, the cat too!)
Love to work alongside these guys on the farm, whether it be for herding, rodent control, or protection… and then make a quick get away for the trails to do some exploring! (And, yes, the cat keeps up quite well!) 🐈🐕🥾
