About Us
Lost Peacock Creamery is a Grade A Goat Dairy in Olympia, Washington. It is a labor of love filled with our blood, sweat, and tears (don’t worry, we keep all that out of the cheese). We specialize in fresh and aged goat cheese and goat yogurt. At Lost Peacock Creamery the goats have wings, the pigs have polka dots, and the trees hug us back. Everyone has a place at our table. And no, we don’t milk the peacock
Practices
As a Grade A Goat Dairy we are conscious of how our presence impacts the environment and we’re proud to be a Thurston County Green Business. We milk 44 goats twice a day and make cheese three times a week. Our power comes from alternative energy sources (including solar from our farm), we harvest and reuse both rainwater and water from the dairy, and we utilize our whey by-products to feed our pigs.
We are committed to creating an environment that sustains us without sacrificing the land. We are a certified Animal Welfare Approved farm. In Europe the term “High Farming” is used to reference the perfect balance between plants and animals. Animals enrich the soil, the soil produces plants, the plants feed the animals. As lofty as it may sound, we aspire to succeed at “High Farming” and, in turn, nourish the people.
Our farm has made the conscious decision to raise animals with respect and dignity. We believe by giving animals a free and protected environment they will grow happy and healthy, without the constant bevy of antibiotics, hormones and fillers, factory farms are forced to use. We also believe when animals are raised in fresh air and sunshine (or in our case, rainshine) their milk, meat and eggs are healthier for us.
