Nestled off the beaten path in Ahualoa, on the Big Island of Hawaii, lies the Hawaii Island Goat Dairy.  A farmstead goat cheese operation established in January 2001, the dairy is owned and operated by Dick and Heather Threlfall, and resides on 10 acres of retired macadamia nut tree orchard.  The dairy boasts a fully automated pipeline milking system designed exclusively for goats.  The herd consists of several dairy goat breeds, mainly Toggenburgs, Nubians, Alpines, Saanens, and various crosses.  The goats range freely through several rotational pastures, browsing on tropical vegetation including, bamboo, ti, ginger, macadamia nut tree leaves, and pasture grass
