Little Spring Creek Farm – A Rare Jewel in Perry County, TN
Little Spring Creek Farm is a lovely 62-acre farm in the rolling hills of Perry County, TN.
Brandon and Andrea Williams and their 4 children take care of a beautiful farm with a herd of Nubian and LaMancha goats, and a lot of free-ranging hogs. There is plenty of acreage on the farm for their animals to graze on and brush for their goats to browse on. It is also filled with lots of natural water systems, springs, creeks, etc., thus the name, Little Spring Creek Farm.
Their goats are fed in the healthiest way possible for the production of extremely good milk. Of course, goats are browsers not grazers, and do well on more than just grass. This is perfectly fine from a “Weston Price Foundation” perspective. Goats need some sort of feed as well as grass and other vegetation.
*** NEWSFLASH! As of March 2021, Little Spring Creek Farm will have a surplus of fresh, raw goat milk after their winter shortage! Come and get it! ***
Their feed is non-GMO and consists of soaked grains, including soaked wheat and oats. This makes it much easier for the goats to digest, and therefore they make better quality milk. These goats are Nubians with long floppy ears, and they are known as the “Jerseys of the goat world” because they have the highest butterfat content of all goat breeds, at 4.6%.
The very cute, earless LaMancha goats give almost the same butterfat at 4.2%, except their milk has been said to taste like melted vanilla ice cream! The LaManchas actually do have inner ears, just not outer ones. They can hear just fine.
And now, Little Spring Creek farm is also offering free-range pork. These hogs are let out on grass and in the forest all day to forage on acorns, bugs, and greenery of all kinds. This is the healthiest kind of pork available. Grab it while you can. The smell in your kitchen as it cooks will be delightful.
This farm is offering many products in their herd share program at this point, including:
* RAW Goat milk
