The Goatery at Kiawah River

Specializing in the production of handmade goat cheese and other high-quality goat milk products, The Goatery is an artisan goat dairy that doubles as a sanctuary, offering 90-some kids, bucks and nannies—infant, male and female goats—a forever home.

Start-up farmers Danny Sillvant and Missy Farkouh lead The Goatery’s daily operations, which includes milking the goats and conducting wellness checks. Committed to humane farming practices, Danny and Missy provide top-of-the line dairy products to some of Charleston’s most notable restaurants. The Goatery is currently upgrading their dairy facility with a new, high-tech converted shipping container, which will allow them to produce a greater variety of cheeses and cosmetic products.
