Welcome to the North East Texas Goat Raisers Association!

The North East Texas Goat Raiser’s Association, a non-profit organization, was established in 2003, through the Texas Cooperative Extension Service. Our mission is to promote the betterment of the goat industry in Northeast Texas with integrity and honor, with education and shared knowledge to the citizens of Northeast Texas and abroad.  The group sponsors monthly events such as sales, shows, field days and educational presentations.  The organization is headed by a Board of Directors elected by the general membership.  General membership meetings are held at the Sulphur Springs Ag Workers Building at Buford Park (See Events page for dates).  The Board of Directors meets monthly, the first Thursday of each month, at the same location. 

Whether you are new to raising goats or have been doing it for years, NETGRA is a great place to learn new information or get a refresher course.   NETGRA provides a place to market your animals, meet other goat raisers to share information, and learn valuable information.  As a member you will receive a calendar, the monthly newsletter, you will be able to consign animals in our sales and attend field days.  If you are interested in becoming a member, simply download the application form below, complete the information and mail it to the address on the form with the appropriate dues.

At our meeting in January, Kenneth White resigned as President of NETGRA.  Kenneth had the opportunity to purchase property near College Station and will be moving his farm at the beginning of February.  A sincere THANKS to Kenneth for serving as our President.  You will be missed and we hope to see you at some of our events in the future.

Lyndie Mansfield will be assuming the role as President for the remainder of the year.
