Our Products
Body Care
Homestead Ranch is proud to offer a great variety of luxurious, moisturizing body care products made from our fresh goat’s milk.
Goat Milk Soap
Our goat milk soap is rich in alpha-hydroxy acids (from the goat’s milk!) which helps remove dead skin cells from your skin’s surface, leaving new cells on the surface of your skin that are smoother and younger looking. This benefit is natural in goat milk products. In other body care products, this is usually synthetically or chemically produced.
Goat Milk Lip Balms
Our lip balms are moisturizing and Selenium-rich. Selenium is believed by scientists to have an important role in preventing skin cancer. Selenium can also help prevent damage to the skin from excessive time in the sun and goat’s milk contains this important skin healing mineral as well which gives our lip balms a natural sun-damage protection.
Goat Milk Lotions
Why goat milk-based lotion? Because goat’s milk has anti-bacterial properties that delay the growth of microbial organisms that spur the spread of acne. The cream present in goat’s milk is a natural moisturizer, soothing dry and damaged skin and possessing an anti-inflammatory effect.
Herd Share
Thank you for your interest in The Homestead Ranch Goat Herd Share Program! For those unfamiliar with the concept of herd sharing, also known as farm shares or goat shares, customers buy shares of a herd and thereby become owners! As an owner, the customer is now entitled to the milk from their share. Essentially, The Homestead Ranch Herd Share Program is a great way to enjoy the benefit of farm-fresh goat’s milk without all the work of housing and caring for the animals yourself!
WHy Herd Share?
In the state of Colorado, it is illegal to sell raw unpasteurized milk. However, if you are a part owner in a herd (herd share) then you have the right to obtain the herd’s milk. Our milk is tested monthly for unhealthy bacteria and our herd has been tested for both Brucellosis and Tuberculosis (TB) to ensure the milk you’re receiving is safe.
Why Raw Goat's Milk?
According to the Journal of American Medicine, “Goat’s milk is the most complete food known.” Check out our resources page for more information about the health benefits of goat’s milk. What’s more, it tastes great!

Beef
Are you looking to purchase some of your favorite beef cuts? Head on over to our online store to browse our currently available inventory. There you will find a variety of steaks, roasts, ribs, specialty cuts, and ground beef.
Pork
Our pigs are raised happy and healthy – unconfined, with plenty of room to roam and access to sun and fresh air. Our pork comes from happy pigs in a natural habitat where they can forage. This directly impacts the quality (both flavor and nutrition) of the pork they produce.
Goat
Goat meat is very lean, with a sweeter taste than lamb. It’s perfect cooked in stews, Mexican dishes, and curries! We recommend trying this versatile protein for yourself!
Goat Cheese
Farm stand artisan style cheese made fresh from our dairy goats. We use all natural ingredients to give you the best taste and flavor profile! We have been making cheese for 10 years now and are very excited to bring this back to your table from our farm!

We hope you enjoy the fruits of our labor!!
