An Organization By Youth for Youth... 

The state of Minnesota is full of amazing young people involved in the meat goat industry. In 2019, some youth felt there needed to be an outlet for youth to come together and share their knowledge and love for the industry. Learn more about our journey. 

Keep Up! 

The JMMGA is a perfect way to get involved in meat goat events in the state of Minnesota and across the nation. Many of these events offer educational activities and fun competitions for juniors which is a perfect way to work on your skills and meet new friends!

Minnesota Boer Goat Association Breeding Doe Program


​New in 2020, the Junior Minnesota Meat Goat Associations parent organization announced their new Breeding Doe Program. Similar to the Minnesota Beef Expo's MYBEP Program, the Minnesota Boer Goat Association opens up an application for youth who are interested in starting in the meat goat project. One lucky applicant is then selected to receive a donated goat from the MNBGA. 

Last year's winner was Rylee Bundermann and she was paired with JMMGA mentor Sam Philips. Learn more about her experience and the program here.
