Goat Milk Colostrum is nature’s original superfood. It builds and supports an active, healthy immune system. Whether from people or goats, it contains naturally occurring immunoglobulins, lactoferrin, and over 20 different antibodies for immune health and gastro-intestinal support. We collect this real colostrum from happy, healthy, goats in the Pacific Northwest.
Our Goat Milk Powder comes directly from small, family-owned Dutch goat milk farms in the Netherlands. Goat Milk is the most widely consumed milk in the world! It is delicious, easy to digest, and packed with health boosting nutrients. It’s no wonder it’s been called one of nature’s greatest foods!
Our hand-made goat milk cream soaps are made using the heavy cream from our own grass-fed goats. Heavy cream contains the concentrated protein, fat, and minerals that makes goat milk soap so famously beneficial. Whereas raw goat milk is only 8% solids the heavy cream we produce is over 50% solids which means more concentrated goat milk goodness in every bar.
That statement has nothing to do with the products and everything to do with tradition in the U.S.
Change comes slowly in the States. That is an undeniable fact.
Over the past few centuries, Americans have grown accustomed to their milk coming from cows. They have grown accustomed to their cheeses coming from cow milk. If any product has dairy products in it, we just assume those dairy products are bovine in nature, because that’s the way it has always been.
So, faced with overwhelming scientific and medical evidence which points to the undeniable health benefits of goat milk products, Americans still drag their feet, shake their heads, and then stick their collective head in the sand, which is all a bit odd, if you think about it, since our European ancestors thought exactly the opposite in the great goat vs cow debate.
It’s a head-shaker for sure. Medical study after medical study point to the health benefits of goat milk products, but present those studies to a person eating at McDonalds and, well, the outcome is predictable.
Americans are, ever-so-slowly, becoming more health conscious. They are, in greater numbers, looking at alternative products for a healthier lifestyle, and in that search they have discovered goat milk products. Goat milk soaps, goat milk whey, goat milk cheeses, goat milk probiotics, goat milk formula, the number of products are increasing rapidly to meet the surge in demand, and that warms our hearts.
At Mt. Capra we are all about healthy living. Mt. Capra is a small, family-run farm in the Pacific Northwest which, for nearly a century, has been producing premium whole foods and nutritional products from goat milk. Our grass-fed goats(grass farming) graze on pesticide-free and chemical-free forage 365 days a year. No hormones or antibiotics are used to increase production.
That is an important statement to us. It is not easy to raise any animal in a pesticide-free and chemical-free environment. It is not easy to ignore hormones or antibiotics. And yet we do these things because we believe, by not doing them, we produce a safe, incredibly healthy product.
Yes, change comes slowly in this country, but we are patient here at Mt. Capra, and we are determined.

Are the goat milk products all from grass fed goats? My infant is allergic to wheat and yeast. Are the goats fed any of that?
Hello, Christine. All of our milk powder and proteins come from grass-fed goats. The goats are not given any yeast…but they do receive a very small portion of grain ONLY at milking time, used to entice them into the milking stalls and to keep them from misbehaving :). Of that grain, approximately 12 to 15% of it is organic wheat.
Do you produce:
Goat milk sour cream
Goat milk cream cheese
Goat milk yogurt
Goat milk kefir
Can we come visit you and it directly from you?
Thanks!

Hello, Patty. Except for our exceptional grass-fed ghee (goat milk clarified butter), Mt. Capra does not produce any liquid goat milk products or cheese. All of our fresh grass-fed goat milk is dried and packaged as dried milk powders, protein powders, mineral whey and colostrum. We also have a number of dietary supplements of which said powders are ingredients.
