Oswego, New York – The State Department of Agriculture recently conducted a survey that shows a 68 percent increase in the state's number of dairy goats since 1997...yet there are only 15 goat milk processing facilities in New York.

WRVO's Jasmyn Belcher visited a local dairy goat farm and prepared this report.
