My youngest daughter can't tolerate cows milk so we've resorted to goat's milk and Polar Hill goat's milk is the best by far! My daughter loves it. The staff is so friendly, love this place!!!

So much fun for kids and adults! Owner is awesome! The goats are happy and well taken care of. We were able to feed the 2 day old adorable goats. They also had several dogs, kittens and chickens roaming around the property. All animals hanging out in harmony. We had a great time!

I'm so thankful my daughter told me about Poplar Hill Dairy Goat Farm! I tried drinking goat milk when our family lived in Colorado, but the flavor was awful and I just couldn't drink it. Not only do I like the taste of Poplar Hill Dairy Goat Farm milk, but I also started making kefir from their milk. Since drinking the Kefir I have been able to stop taking Omeprazole 3 times per day, and my husband has stopped taking Omeprazole once per day. I'm so thankful my daughter told me about Poplar Hill Dairy Goat Farm!

Visiting the Poplar Hill Dairy Goat Farm was an absolute delight, perfect for anyone who loves spending time with animals. We got hands-on experience feeding adorable baby goats, interacting with the friendly older herd, and even learned a bit about horses and the world of barrel racing. Beyond the animals, our wonderful tour guide truly made the trip—she shared the fascinating history of the farm while offering a thoughtful look into the real-world challenges facing modern farming families today. It is a highly recommended experience that is equal parts educational, inspiring, and fun!

We had a great experience today playing with and bottle feeding some baby goats! It is clear that owners of the farm put a lot of hard work into their property and prioritize their goats well-being. It was cool to hear about the history of the farm and see the milking facility. Would definitely recommend.

What an incredible place! From being greeted by the adorable little puppy known as Moira Rose, to playing with the baby goats, feeding them, and even milking a goat, this tour shows you everything! This is a working farm with a lot going on which gives you a first-hand look into what it takes to keep a farm running. Sarah was an awesome tour guide and so informative! Same for some of the hands, Josh and Josh! The babies will absolutely melt your heart and take all your worries in the world away. Truly a special place and would recommend the tour to anyone! Thank you, Sarah!

I was just here today (march 20th) with my school group, and it was awesome! Baby goats were very sweet, as well as the rest of the animals. Learned a lot as well!

What a lovely time! We got to hold so many baby goats (days old), play with puppies, tour all the different goat barns, pet her horses, see the chickens, milk a goat by hand, and tour all the facilities. Sarah does an AMAZING job with her husband keeping the farm running and the tour gave us an inside look at how much work is put into the operation. I’m very impressed and I so enjoyed our time there. Will be back there soon! Definitely go visit, no matter what age or how many people.

Sarah and the Poplar family and staff work tirelessly, around the clock to ensure the health, safety, and happiness of the goats and visitors on this farm. Whether you are there to buy a gallon of goat milk or to visit with the goats on a farm tour, you will be greeted with warmth and good cheer. I don't think there is anything else like it in the Twin Cities metro.
