About Red Island Farm


We are a small farm on Prince Edward Island. You could call it a mini farm or a hobby farm but coming from a full size farm to a much smaller one, I prefer to call it a small farm. Now if you came from the city and bought a small farm you would call it a hobby or mini farm. In my opinion every animal needs a purpose or a job and all our animals have just that.

On our small farm we have 9 Toggenburg does, three barn cats, two border collies, and one house cat (who thinks he is a barn cat when warm goat's milk in on the barn menu).
The nine does are all due to have kids this spring. The first that is due is Eden on May 5th. She is my princess, one of the first two goats to come to our farm in 2000. She is my best milker and leads the herd with dignity and pride. It is getting increasingly harder for her with 4 young ones to keep in line.

Hello Em, David, Katie & Jordan
We have been checking out your new blog and wanted to send a quick hello. We are looking forward to seeing all the new baby goats in June. We will see you all this summer.
