(Raindate- Saturday, September 30, 2023)

John and Rachel Palacino have owned and operated a DHEC certified dairy since 2000. Having planned, built and operated two different farm locations in Travelers Rest, SC, they have learned the homestead dairy world from the inside out. They will help you see a clear picture of what it takes to raise goats and give you first-hand information and instruction. By the end of the day you may even be able to milk a goat yourself!
