There aren't any goat dairy farms that I know of. I just checked the internet, and it says in Finland we have total of 30 farms rearing goats. And as far as I know, none of them aren't located anywhere near me =)
Well, but there's a somewhat similar effect with backyard chicken coops. I think it has been a growing trend in many European countries, Finland included. Several of my friends have small flocks of hen to keep them self-sufficient with eggs. And sometimes the hen also hatch the eggs - which then leads to a surplus of young roosters. Since I don't have hen, I can host a flock of roosters; they don't fight that much when there aren't hen around to fight for. So, seems like despite quitting my tiny sheep operation, I'll anyway be producing a little of home-grown free-range meat.
Well, maybe I could still stock some cans of boar meat, hehe =)
