North
Eden Farm,
home to our Boer goats, is located eight kilometers north of
Edenwold, Saskatchewan, Canada, on the 640 grid. Eight years ago
we, Jerry and Darlyne Hoberg, bought an old dairy farm along with twenty
goats. Nineteen of these goats were half blood Boer does along with one
purebred Boer buck.
We
presently have one hundred purebred, percentage registered and
commercial does.
Our purebred stock is from South African
bloodlines and Full Canadians bred up using purebred registered bucks
and the offspring of our original herd. Our percentage animals and
commercials are crossed with Saanan and
Nubian dairy goats. We have used the cross with these dairy breeds to
increase the milk supply in our does.
Our
focus, on North Eden Farm, is to provide quality breeding
stock to our clients as well as raise kids for the meat market.
On North Eden Farm we use Kuvasz guard dogs for predator control.
Since using these wonderful canines we haven't lost a single goat to
predators.
Darlyne is a member of
Saskatchewan Goat
Breeders Association. She is a current member and past
director of the
Canadian
Boer Goat Association. While a director for the CBGA
Darlyne was in charge of the constitution.
