Farmer Spotlight: Soledad Goats
We now have fresh goat cheese and yogurt available from Soledad Goats! Award-winning cheese-makers, Julian and Carol Pearce, operate Soledad Goat Farm in Mojave, CA at the base of Soledad Mountain. The Pearces raise several different types of goats including Alpines, which they say are the sweet natured bunch.

Come on by the market Tuesday and try a fresh sample or how about pairing that goat cheese with a ripe seasonal pair? YUM!
