Every day at Sunday Creek Sanctuary, the routine of milking goats twice daily becomes a central task, highlighting the farm's commitment to sustainability and self-sufficiency. The process begins with the first freshening, where goats like Maisie and Daisy, once they start lactating, are milked continuously for over a year, producing substantial amounts of milk.
This diligent practice ensures a consistent yield, with the goats providing anywhere from half a gallon to three-quarters of a gallon daily. The conversation among the farmers reflects a deep understanding and passion for their work, coupled with practical tips such as using a Hardee's cup for stripping the first few squirts of milk.
This daily ritual not only sustains the farm but also fosters a community spirit, turning everyday tasks into opportunities for shared learning and connection.
