We have delicious raw goat milk in quart size, and half gallon sizes through September, when our breeding season begins and need to dry off the ladies. We make small batch cheeses from time to time and always have farm fresh gelato at farmer's markets in NH.

Goat milk does contain lactose, though less than the levels found in cow milk. Some lactose intolerant people may find it easier to tolerate, but this is highly individual.
When raw goat milk is milked properly it can last up to 2 weeks in the fridge. The average timeframe is 7-10 days.
