Let’s all raise a glass (of milk) to Vincent Maefsky, the hardworking patriarch of Poplar Hill Dairy Goat Farm in Scandia, Minn. Since 1975, the Maefsky family — and their 750-plus herd of purebred Alpines, Saanens, Toggenburgs and Nubians, of course — have been delivering much-needed diversity, in the form of fresh pasteurized goat’s milk, to supermarket dairy cases across the Upper Midwest. Look for the cute brown-and-green carton.
