West Jordan, Utah · Situated in the Salt Lake Valley in West Jordan, Utah, about 10 miles from Salt Lake City to the north, Drake Family Farms milks profits from a herd of dairy goats, enduring the rapidly changing landscape of agriculture and land use. A Utah Century Farm owned by Jeanette and Ron Drake, Drake Family Farms specializes in goats milk products, including cheese, raw milk, yogurt and handmade goats milk soaps. The farm also continues breeding their award-winning Nubian, Saanen and Snubian goats -- a business started by their 13-year-old son, Daniel, in 1984 as a 4-H project -- and operates a licensed USDA Grade A commercial dairy on site to process their high quality products.

At dusk on a summer evening, honey-warm light shines from the expanse of windows in the large timber and tin-roofed building. Kids tumble on the lawn out front, and horses graze in lush green grass in the pasture. While people dine in shorts and t-shirts on the patio, curious cats circle a small pond. Saucer-sized hollyhocks frame the stone path that leads up to the screen door, and Tibetan prayer flags wave in the sagebrush-scented air.
