CRYSTAL BROOK FARM is a pristine, award winning New England farmstead where owner Ann Starbard makes goat cheese. The herd of 70 Alpine and Saanen dairy goats produce all the milk used in the goat cheese operation. Thus purity, quality and freshness is consistently controlled. The goat cheese is a natural product. The animals receive high quality feed, with free access to green pastures and seasonal browse. These details yield an abundant quantity of fresh milk that is free of antibiotic residue and synthetic hormones. Circular sawn lumber is also produced on the farm by Eric Starbard, owner. He operates a 1920's Lane sawmill. Custom sawing is also available. Wide pine planks for flooring and old building projects is available as well as odd dimension beams of various tree species.

Happy Mardi Gras! The goats are celebrating Fat Tuesday!! They are about as wide as they are long! Most are heading into their last week of pregnancy. We are anxiously awaiting for group birthing to commence. Nursery pens are scrubbed, newly bedded and ready for young ones to bleat for milk and attention. Towels, bottle of lube and gloves are at the ready for the few moms that will need assistance. And Goat Cheese customers wait patiently for the first cheese of 2012!! Stay Tuned!!
