Rusty Star Ranch has amazing goat milk, have not tried other products yet but I’m sure they are delicious! Appreciate how responsive they are on the phone and very easy to contact!
Excellent quality.
Wonderful goat milk! Always fresh and delicious!
Rusty Star Ranch's products are amazing and have become a "must have" for me. Their raw goat milk has become pretty much the only milk I buy and their pork is simply the best. Their sausages are so good I've gotten in the habit of buying extras for family and friends just because I want them to try them too. That outstanding farm fresh quality really shines through in everything they do.

1. Brandon is super nice and helpful. 2. I haven’t had goats milk or cheese this good in a long time! Definitely recommend for anyone looking for a charcuterie board, dip or even just a midnight treat. I almost grabbed and started eating it on the way home!
Wife and I have purchased raw goat milk and raw goat yogurt several times from Rusty Star Ranch. Quality and freshness have been great, and we appreciate their offerings. Looking forward to our next big raw milk purchase so we can make our own homemade raw goat's milk yogurt as well as goat mozzarella cheese! Recommended.
I have been buying my fresh raw goat milk from Rusty Star Ranch for several years now and it is consistently delicious and wonderful quality. It has a superb clean taste and is nothing like the goat milk you can buy in a store. Thanks for offering this great and healthy product!
Best Feta I’ve EVER HAD! They pop up at the Bastrop farmers market and I thought I’d support them even if I’ve never tried any of their products but boy did it surprise me! They sell meat, lotion and I believe milk and soap. I’m excited to continue to shop with them and try some new things other than their feta cheese! The gentleman who helps the shop is really sweet and knowledgeable, overall an extremely positive person experience. Thanks!
