Welcome to the Toggenburg Goats of Arizona
Our Goat Milk Products
Our artisan goat milk products are all natural and are mixed with organic herbs to enhance the taste, touch, and smell that is rarely met by traditional mass-produced products on the market today. There are no preservatives in any of our products.
The Toggs' chevre cheese is light and smooth with the right hints of herbs and spices that goes well with most any food pairings. Use simply on crackers with a confetti of chopped veggies, on a pizza or mix with your favorite dishes such as curries and chili. There are no preservatives in our cheese.
Our artisan lotions are all natural and contain no preservatives. The lotions moisturize and are known to heal dry and chafed skin. We strongly recommend keeping the lotion out of the sun and extreme heat. They contain almond oil, avocado oil, water, stearic acid, emulsifying wax, raw shea butter, fragrance, and of course, goat's milk.
We have many fragrances and if you need a fragrance and we don't have it, we will make it, just for you.
Our Chocolate goat milk fudge is always fresh. Made with goat milk, sugar, vanilla, chocolate chips, butter and marshmallow cream. It is Delicious!
The Toggenburg Goats
Toggenburg is a breed of goat named after the Toggenburg Valley region in Switzerland, where the breed originated. These goats are the oldest known domesticated animals in the world. "Toggs", as they are nicknamed, are medium in size, moderate in production of milk, and have relatively low butterfat content - 2-3% in their milk. The Toggenburg buck (males) weight approximately 200 pounds, and a doe can weigh approximately 120 to 130 pounds as adults

About the Eatons
We started raising goats in 2009 after purchasing three Toggenburg doelings at the Yuma County Fair. That was the start of our obsession with the "Toggs!" We have traveled throughout the western US to collect additional top producers for our herd, which is in excess of 40
People ask why we do this...because we love the goats! And they go "Baaaa."
The Eatons have attended the American Dairy Goat National Convention on numerous occasions and exchanges ideas with other goat owners nation wide
