Michael “Brandon” Cline
​
I’m a resident of Menifee County and was born and raised in Bath County. I come from a long line of farmers ranging from Dairy and Beef cattle to tobacco. I’ve been raising goats since I was seven ever since the Easter Bunny brought me my first. In school I was very active in 4-H and FFA and later as an adult leader. In the last 10-12 years I’ve been raising a small herd of registered and commercial Boer and Boer Savanna crosses. I market to 4-H and FFA kids for their SAE projects and to the meat industry. For the last 7 years I’ve been working for Tractor Supply and have enjoyed working with the customers that raise goats. Some are new to raising goats and some are seasoned producers. One thing I’ve learned is there’s always something new to learn and I enjoy sharing what I’ve learned with others. As a board member I would love to continue learning and sharing that knowledge with other producers whether big or small . I would also like to work as a group to continue our great organization and help it to grow, and evolve.
