About Us

The story of Poppy's Pride starts long before Poppy's Pride was an official herd with the American Dairy Goat Association.

​

For over 15 years, Poppy had grown to love his goats. After he passed in 2017, his last wether, "Peanut", came to live with us. After a few months, we got a call asking if Peanut wanted a retired doe as a buddy. It turned out that DJ was not "retired" and we welcomed mixed twins in March of 2018. And thus the need to have a herd name, and our dive into Oberhasli dairy goats, began.

​

Emmalee selected her herd name. A tribute to her Great-Grandfather and to tie in her love of lions (a group of lions is pride).

​

Since our "official" start in 2018, we have learned a lot and grown as individuals and as goat breeders. As we continue to learn and grow, we are thankful for the past and are looking forward to a bright future.

​

Currently our herd consists of 12 Oberhasli and we now have 2 Alpines. As we grow and develop both breeds, we are thankful for the genetics that we have been able to bring in to our herd to create a wonderful foundation that combines type and production.
