My little ones

I've always wanted goats. I couldn't explain why. They're agile, quick-witted, sociable, and mischievous. At the same time, they're strong animals, capable of withstanding the temperature fluctuations of these lands in the Jiloca region of Teruel . My inseparable dogs, China, Gusi, Peluche, and Sol, could whisper more than one anecdote about the kids.

I'm fascinated by the smells of herding. When the barley is ripening, when the goats brush against the thyme with their hooves, or when they roam through the pine forests and rub against the tree trunks. Then you feel the freshness and the scent of wood.

Through dedication and hard work, Óscar and I are building a small herd of about five hundred goats . The landscape here is theirs: steppe, plains dotted with holm oaks, fields of grain, pine trees, and aromatic herbs. Natural, respectful, and organic farming methods result in meat with a unique flavor.

RESPECTFUL PARENTING

Sustainable livestock farming

We are deeply committed to a model of extensive, localized and therefore limited livestock farming that respects the life cycles of our goats.

We want to promote and value meat goats and recover selected breeds that are disappearing, such as Blanca de Rasquera, Andaluza or Celtibérica.

ECOLOGICAL BY PHILOSOPHY

Natural food

All of our goats' food comes from the countryside, from the landscapes they roam. They have a sweet tooth by nature and are also demanding eaters; they like variety. Holm oaks, steppe plants, alfalfa… which we supplement with cereals and silage during the winter. Out of conviction, we are members of the Aragonese Committee for Organic Agriculture .

We have seventy hectares of alfalfa for them . A magnificent source of protein, which translates into a rich, robust milk, ideal for feeding the kids.

FOREST FIREFIGHTERS

Allies against fires

Are you aware of the valuable contribution of goats as natural brush clearers in the mountains ? By reviving traditional grazing practices, we help keep the forest clean and prevent fires. This is work we carry out in collaboration with various local stakeholders.

An adult goat can eat four kilos of vegetation a day. They are selective and very particular, too. They alternate between grass, brambles, and trees. They become magnificent forest firefighters , because they reach places where other livestock cannot.
