OPEN FARM DAY From Fall 2011 on Fox


Located in the lovely rolling hills of northeast Randolph county, the farm and its log buildings are more than 200 years old. Our family began restoring 60 acres of the original homestead in 1983.  Today our working farm of 75 acres is rich in the diversity of pastures, ponds, meadows, gardens, woodlands, wildlife and livestock. Using sustainable agriculture, we work with nature to enrich rather than deplete our environment. We intentionally limit the size of our farm operation in order to maintain the personal quality of our products and continue to enjoy what we do everyday.

When the North Carolina Department of Agriculture granted our goat dairy license in 1996, one of only a handful in the state, it was only natural for us to take the name "Goat Lady Dairy." Ginnie raised goats as a hobby for many years and was affectionately known by her friends and customers as "the Goat Lady." Our name also signifies to us that our goats are ladies with gentility, grace and individual character! Our herd here at the dairy consists of mixtures of three dairy breeds: the pure white Saanen, the long-eared Nubian and the multi-colored French Alpine.

Growing from the first small herd of Nubian goats we now work with area partner farms who help supply the milk needed to produce all the goat and cow cheese made here at Goat Lady Dairy.  You can find our products at the Greensboro Farmers Curb Market, the Piedmont Triad Farmers Market and at fine stores and restaurants throughout North Carolina.

In addition to our handmade artisan cheeses, we offer “Farm to Fork” dining adventures at the Dairy.  We also host weddings and other private events.  Our newest venture is a non-certified organic vegetable Community Supported Agriculture program. Our mission is to nurture the land, our family, and our guests through creative work and quality products.

At your Service, The Tate family  -- Lee, Steve, Gareth, Nate, Mills, and Lillian.
