Life on the Farm: A Day Caring for Our Animals

At RC First Fruits Farm LLC, every day is a new adventure filled with the rewarding work of caring for our animals. From our Nigerian Dairy Goats to our Idaho Pasture Pigs and New Zealand Rabbits, each animal plays an important role in our farm’s ecosystem. Here’s a glimpse into a typical day on the farm and how we ensure the well-being of our beloved animals.


1. Morning Feeding and Care

The day starts bright and early with feeding time. Each animal gets a balanced, nutritious meal tailored to their needs. Our Nigerian Dairy Goats enjoy a mix of hay and grains, while our Idaho Pasture Pigs graze on fresh pasture and receive a small amount of grains enriched with the minerals needed for their diet. Ensuring they’re well-fed and happy is our top priority.


2. Milking the Goats

One of the most important tasks of the day is milking our Nigerian Dairy Goats. Their rich, creamy milk is the key ingredient in our handcrafted goat milk soap. We handle the milking process with care, ensuring the goats are comfortable and stress-free.


3. Animal Health Checks

Caring for our animals means keeping a close eye on their health. We perform daily checks to make sure everyone is thriving, addressing any concerns promptly. Regular grooming and maintenance, like hoof trimming for the goats, are also part of our routine.


4. Pasture Management

Our Idaho Pasture Pigs play a crucial role in maintaining healthy pastures. We rotate their grazing areas to ensure the land stays fertile and balanced. This sustainable practice benefits both the animals and the environment.


5. Evening Routines

As the day winds down, we ensure all the animals are settled in for the night. Fresh bedding, clean water, and a peaceful environment are provided to keep them comfortable and safe.


6. Sustainability in Action

Every task on the farm reflects our commitment to sustainability and ethical farming. By raising our animals with care and respect, we create a harmonious balance between their well-being and the land they live on.


Life on the farm is hard work, but it’s also incredibly fulfilling. Our animals are the heart of RC First Fruits Farm LLC, and their care is the foundation of everything we do—from sustainable farming to creating high-quality goat milk soap.


Thank you for supporting our small, family-run farm and helping us continue our mission of ethical and sustainable farming.
