Goats at Rosewood Hill Farm





Located 1.5 hours from Washington, D.C. in Rappahannock County Rosewood Hill Farm is 65 acres of pasture and forest. We sell grass fed goat meat at farmers markets in Northern Virginia. We also grow Indian vegetables like bitter gourd (Chinese melon), egg plant, and okra.

Did you know that most goat meat sold in the Washington area is from goats raised in far away places like Texas? There they are fed pure protein and straw then trucked several thousand miles across the country using up lots of petroleum. It is much better for your health and the environment to buy locally grown meat and vegetables. Our goats are treated with kindness and are happy playing outdoors nibbling on grass and vines. We do not give our goats growth hormones or antibiotics because we don't believe you should eat those either.

Most Virginia farms raise cattle but goat meat is the meat most widely consumed in the world so it makes sense for the local farmer to cater to the large number of Indians, Arabs, and Latinos living here. That is what we do. We understand your culture and appreciate your literature and languages. We know that immigrants would like to eat the same meats and vegetables here in Virginia that they have grown up eating at home. For this reason we would like to sell goat meat to you.

Write us an email with any special requests or look for us at the farmers markets in Herndon and Leesburg.
