Welcome

A little about ourselves

Welcome to Bartram Farms!
Originally located in the Texas Panhandle; we are a small herd of award winning ADGA Nubian, Lamancha and Toggenburg dairy goats. Formerly known as Tule Creek Dairy, we opted to change our herd name to reflect our new direction and location in 2017. Same faces, new name!
A bit of history ...
      Our herd began with a darling pair of Kinder goats from Jan Hodges of New Mexico for "a bit of milk", according to the tale I told my sweet husband. Those two kinders were a joy, and quickly led to pair of nubians from the Arch*Acres and 4B herd, Festival & Jazz. As things do, our herd slowly grew and we jumped in with both feet to the showing world. A few kids flown in from the Lakeshore and Hoanbu herd, as well as a quick trip to Dallas to visit Latte Da and we were on our way! 

Although nubians are our first love, a bit of coaxing from our dear family at M's Sagebrush Acres saw the addition of toggenburgs and lamanchas. Marshall was right - the most adorable goat baby in the world may be a togg! The lamanchas stole our hearts as well with their quirky personality, quick wit and will to milk. 

2015 saw the opening of our Grade A goat dairy & creamery in the Texas Panhandle. We were overjoyed after two long years of planning and building to bring our love of the herd and their incredible milk and cheeses to our friends at markets, restaurants and private events. I can never express the gratitude for the overwhelming support we received during our time that we operated our commercial dairy. However, as life happens as it does, we were led to sell our home and dairy to some wonderful folks and relocate to Dodge City, Kansas. As a good friend once said to me - Plot Twist!

Which brings us to our time in Kansas. Our beautiful farm was nestled among the sunflower and alfalfa fields in the rolling Kansas prairie. The land is gorgeous and Kansas folks are some of the best I've met.

And another PLOT TWIST! 
(God surely has a sense of humor!)

In the fall of 2019 our beloved dairy was unexpectedly placed back into our hands, and we have made the decision to return to our roots and back HOME to the Texas Panhandle in the spring of 2020. We ask our loyal vendors and customers to bear with us as we make the long journey home and relocate ourselves and the herd. We humbly ask again for our community's support as we reopen the dairy, and begin to provide our customers the same great cheeses and soaps that were so openly welcomed before our departure to Kansas. 

We truly enjoy the adventures God has led us on, and the wonderful friends (and family!) that we have had the pleasure to cross paths with.

GUESS WHAT! We are moving again it seems!
Please bear with us as we begin relocating back to the Texas Panhandle in the spring of 2020 (tentatively). We are offering our soaps and such until the licensing process of the dairy (and relocation from Kansas) is completed. Thank you for all of your well wishes and support as we go through this arduous transition.
