Our Featured Vendor this week is The Baker Homestead. Blake, Kristin, Grayson & Ren run the only Grade A Goat Dairy in Washington County, VA. The Bakers have a herd of 13 and are milking 7, with hopes of expanding their herd soon. As a Micro-dairy, the small scale production allows this family to be hands on in every aspect of production. They use as many local, fresh ingredients as possible, supporting many other farmers in the process.
Flavors include: Roasted Garlic, Plain Chevre, Fanny Nanny Blackberry, Herbs de Provence, Pimento, Cajun, Roasted Red Pepper, Chocolate Goat, and more! Check out their homemade granola, egg salad sandwiches and goat's milk soaps.
You may also enjoy their cheeses at one of many favorite local restaurants: The Martha Washington Inn & Suites, The House on Main, The WhistlePig, Pop Ellis Sodashop, The Wildflour Bakery & Cafe, Chef Heather's, or enjoy our cheese with a nice glass of local wine at The Abingdon Vineyard & Winery!
I love, love, love The Bakers' goat milk soaps and use it regularly! They know what I am coming for when I head towards their booth!
