A little goat milk product information for you . . . Since we are in the goat milk product business, we have a tendency to read an occasional article about the goat milk industry.

Read MoreGoat Milk Cream Soap
If you have perused our product line here at Mt. Capra, you might have noticed that our soaps are all labeled “goat milk cream soap,” and not just “goat milk soap.” It is an important distinction.

Read MoreMt. Capra Says No to Hormones!
Growth hormones have been approved by the FDA since 1954. Practically all commercial-raised meat in the United States is the result of growth hormones being given to the animals to increase their growth and achieve greater feed-to-growth ratio.

Read MoreMt. Capra is Pesticide-Free

Back then a village was comprised of the residents, of course, but also […]

Read MoreBetter Health Baby Steps
We were shopping in town the other day when a group of ten or more joggers went running by. They were in training for an upcoming marathon. Some were obviously in great shape. Others were struggling and had a ways to go before they would be ready for a twenty-six mile trek. All were doing […]
Read MoreA Healthy Lifestyle Trumps Supplements Any Day
How’s that for a statement which seems to go counter to our business: a healthy lifestyle will always be the Number One contributor to good health! So why would we tell you that? We are Mt. Capra, after all. Our job is to sell health supplements. Why are we, in effect, saying you won’t need […]
