Nigora goats are a new breed in development - a hybrid between goats bred for milk and those bred for fiber. Typically Nigerian x Angora crosses, though other breeds are occasionally incorporated. Both does and bucks/wethers produce lovely fleeces and the does produce delicious, creamy milk. Pictured are two of our bucklings born this spring. One is a third generation and the other is first generation. Both are registerable with the American Nigora Goat Breeders Association (ANGBA). They are fully vaccinated and well on their way to producing beautiful fleeces, and both are descended from proven milk lines so should make excellent sires. DM us if you'd like to learn more about these boys or about the breed in general.

There's lots of plant activity going on here at Amber Roots Farm in northeastern Vermont. Many of these are available in our plant nursery, and we're working on propagating the rest for next year. We grow all of our own plants on-site via seeds and cuttings, using regenerative agriculture practices, and without the use of pesticides. Stop on by for a visit if you're in the area. We love showing off our native and permaculture plants!

Blooming in the plant nursery at Amber Roots Farm this week is this sweet little penstemon - Penstemon hirsutus var. pygmaea 'Albus' (dwarf white hairy beardtongue). Although tiny, only attaining about 4 inches maximum, this is a powerhouse if you love native species. The flowers attract bees and butterflies and the plant itself thrives in gravelly, rocky or poor soil in full sun or partial shade, making it perfect for growing in a rock garden or hanging over a rock wall. They will also do well in containers. Our nursery is open 9-6 seven days a week!

Here are a couple of the fun and hard to find plants we have for sale at our plant nursery near Glover, Vermont: Variegated horseradish (Armoracia rusticana 'Variegata') and dwarf yellow comfrey (Symphytum grandiflorum). The horseradish can be eaten, just like any other variety, and is best harvested in the fall. It takes 2-3 years to obtain the best variegation, so if you want to experience the pretty foliage wait a few years to harvest it. The comfrey is a miniature variety that makes a nice ornamental ground cover in sun or shade. It spreads, but not aggressively, and also attracts bees.
