Each issue of Goat Rancher features a commentary from Terry about the industry entitled "Fodder for Thought", from which he covers diverse topics such as production sales and current trends in the market, as well as comments on his own experiences in the goat business.
Tess Fetterly owns Twisted Horns Farm with her husband Adam and they raise 100% New Zealand and Purebred Kiko Goats. Tess grew up in Roswell, GA and after a short stint in the Navy, attended culinary school and became an executive chef and restaurant operator. After moving out west, she hung up her chef coat to work as a realtor, where she met her husband (a former Marine), together forming a successful real estate team in both Nevada and California. In 2021, Tess and her family returned to Georgia, purchasing a small farm in Jefferson. While Tess and Adam are still active realtors, Tess now focuses on sustainable agricultural pursuits, raising her much loved Kikos, a few chickens and Anatolian Shepherds with Adam and their three children. They are active supporters of their community, especially efforts to uplift and assist wounded veterans.
