And He hath brought us unto this place and hath given
us this land, even a land that floweth with milk and honey. Deut. 26:9
...now arise, go over this Jordan...unto the land...
Joshua 1:2
Welcome to Crossing Jordan Farm. We are a small,
family farm located on 22 acres in Columbia, Tennessee. Here at Crossing Jordan, we raise registered, Nubian dairy
goats and Jersey cows. We have a Great Pyrenees, Delilah, that watches over our does. Gus, our standard donkey
lives in the pasture with the bucks and makes sure nothing comes into his pasture. In addition to these animals, we
also have four horses, a Chocolate lab, four cats and a variety of chickens and guineas. Along with this
menagerie of animals, we also have seven bee hives. With the milk from our goats and cows and the honey from
our bees we truly are a land flowing with milk and honey!
We have been raising horses, cows and chickens for
many years. Seven years ago, we became interested in goat's milk for health purposes. We purchased three does
and discovered, not only the health benefits of their milk, but, also the pleasure of their company. They have wonderful
personalities and each one is different. They are very entertaining and very affectionate. All of our goats are registered through American Dairy Goat Association. We
vaccinate yearly and have a regular worming schedule. We strive to maintain a healthy herd.
Three years ago, we purchased our first Jersey, a four month old heifer that we named Jesse.
Over a period of time and many accumulated miles, we ended up with three more Jersey cows and a Jersey bull. The girls, as
well as our bull, are gentle and friendly pets and we enjoy them meeting us at the barn each morning.
We hope you enjoy our site and the pictures of our farm. If we can ever be of assistance concerning
Nubian goats or Jersey cows, please, don't hesitate to contact us.
