The V ishers' dedication to
the goat business does not
stop with a dairy and a
hobby, however They arc
members of the Penn

was president at one time
They also belong to a loal
club, the South Penn Goat
Association And, they arc
active in promoting goals by
hosting Farm (Tty Tours and
by working on goat
seminars
"Wc really want to let
people know all about the

a few hours is enough to
stimulate an interest in their
business, hobby, and love
