Well-bred goats and artisan cheese for the lactose intolerant

Review of Honey Doe Farm & Creamery by TexasRealFood

Honey Doe Farm emerged from a family's mission to find lactose-friendly milk for their daughter. Goat milk proved to be the solution, and their dream of producing fresh goat milk and homemade cheese became reality in Idaho. With dedication, their herd grew to 100 goats, specializing in LaMancha, Nigerian Dwarf, and Boer breeds.

Their natural approach includes nutritious hay, minerals, and supplements for goats, along with access to water. Hand-crafted goat's milk cheeses are a highlight, led by Lance Hays, a deaf cheesemaker who communicates through American Sign Language, supported by Frances Hays.

Satisfied visitors love touring the creamery, milking goats, and tasting fresh goat cheese. Contact Lance at [email protected] for milk or cheese inquiries. Embrace the farm experience and support local farmers at Honey Doe Farm in Idaho!

Farming Methods, Practices & Certifications

Grass Fed / Pastured Grass Fed / Pastured

Grass Fed / Pastured

The term “grass fed” (as opposed to grain fed) refers to meat obtained from cows that were raised on a diet of grass and other forage, such as clover; situated in pasture and, when fresh grass is unavailable, hay. This helps to denote the difference between livestock that has been raised in feedlots and generally fed a diet of soy and corn, versus animals that have had access to their natural feeding environment in pasture, which contains grasses, wildflowers, and herbs. This term overlaps with “pasture-raised” and will usually be seen together. Grass-fed beef is also believed to taste better, and be better for the environment, too. There are several organizations that offer a certification for Grass Fed, such as the American Grassfed Association, Certified Grassfed by A Greener World, and Pasture for Life, to name a few.

Halal Halal

Halal

Halaal is an Arabic term, which means ‘permissible or lawful’ in English. In terms of meat, the term halaal specifically refers to the method of slaughter whereby a well-sharpened knife is used to make a swift, deep incision that cuts the front of the throat and the blood drained from the veins, as the blood of the animal must never be consumed. Normally, the animal will be stunned prior to having its throat cut. Halaal meat is also blessed before being killed, with the utterance of the Islamic prayer Bismillah “in the name of God”. The meat cannot be pork, which is explicitly prohibited in Islam.

Naturally Grown Naturally Grown

Naturally Grown

Some of the businesses listed in our directory will be using the same principles as Certified Naturally Grown farmers, but without the certification. Certifications can often be expensive and time consuming for most farmers to participate in, and therefore we feel it is important to acknowledge those who practice good land stewardship, without certification.
