Sam and Sigma
All of us here at Summer Young (goats included!) would like to wish you and your families a very Merry Christmas! It’s such a festive time of year, so why not dress a goat up in a reindeer sweater and wear matching Santa hats?
We now have all of our planned does bred to kid in 2015! This year we will have three does scheduled to kid, as listed in the table below. This year we will not be selling any doelings, as we are still building up our herd numbers. We will, however, be selling any bucklings that are born. All goats will be registered with the Canadian Goat Society. Please contact for pricing. Continue reading

Cupcake on her way home in the family station wagon.

All of us know her as Cupcake, and she’s a purebred registered 4 year old Toggenburg doe that has freshened three times. Her first offspring was actually Tip Top Cocoa Cream, or “Clover”, another one of our junior does that we got in 2013. Continue reading
Ran-Cher Acres Alchemy’s Peter
Because two bucks aren’t enough, we bought another! Ran-Cher Acres Alchemy’s Peter is a very funky looking goat, but he’s a 100% purebred registered Toggenburg with lines to brag about, so he now lives with us. Continue reading
