There is a lot of buzz around here about a little goat farm in Maui that supplies goat cheese to most of the major high-end hotels on the islands. I've been lucky enough to sample the cheese a few times in restaurants around town and it's fantastic. So when we were in Maui I dragged Noel and the boys up to lower Kula one afternoon to see the Surfing Goat Dairy Farm located on the slopes of Haleakala. (The view from the picture here is looking out toward West Maui.) We didn't take either of the tours offered, but wandered around where we were permitted, snapped some pictures of the 3-week old babies (above), and took home some goat feta cheese. We mixed it into a green salad that night and it was divine! Seriously some of the best feta you'll ever have.
I was hoping from there we would drive up to Haleakala and view the sunset, but on the slopes of Haleakala does not mean on the way to Haleakala. The dairy farm is not located on the main road that leads to Haleakala, and we didn't really have time to drive around and up to the summit that day so we didn't go. Haleakala is one of my favorite places in all of Hawaii - I keep saying this, but some day we will get back!
