Hello, my name is Dylan Harman. I'm from Hull, Iowa and what started as a couple goats my grandpa got has turned into 20 years of being an active participant in the goat industry. From raising commercial stock, to showing at county fairs, and all the way up to now fitting and showing at national level shows I've been through it all. I understand goats are still new compared to the cattle and pig industry and yet so much to learn about them, but something I have grown to love and enjoy getting more and more people involved with them everyday.
