"Marilissa Farms is located on fifteen acres of lush grassland in Penal, Trinidad. Out of an intense passion for farming, the farm was originally developed as a hobby.
What started as a hobby farm developed into the largest small ruminant farm in the Caribbean.
Our farm currently consists of over 3000 goats, 4000 sheep, cattle, rabbits, llamas, miniature donkeys, Shetland ponies and a wide variety of birds and wildlife including but not limited to peacocks, macaws, parrots, geese, ducks and guinea birds just to name a few." - Source: www.marilissafarms.com

Wonderfully produced video with great information and the animals look clean and healthy
Thanks for sharing
Good
@shri.s mom.s kitchen Most of the farming done in Trinidad is done by Indians. It was like that since slavery was abolished and the black people who become the ex slaves went to Port'-of' Spain. The Indians who were brought in as indentured labourers was able to inherit a lot of land to do their farming decades after.. So when people shop they are supporting Indians. It was always like this when coming to agriculture. You all have to stop stressing on race. It is becoming like America with their division and hate. Indians own most of the businesses after the Syrians. Do not act as if people don't support Indians. This is also an international platform, so don't give people the wrong impression.
An informative presentation of a well run state of the art goat's milk dairy.
I love this.Agriculture is my favourite occupation.I grew up on a farm.As a child my parents were involved in planting rice, cash crop and cattle rearing. I have 28 years in the sugar industry.
I really enjoyed any documents in Agriculture.
God bless
hi do u sell rabbits by chance .
Great story of a successful agri-processing business in T&T. Trinidad also had one of the largest water buffalo population in the Caribbean, suitable for meat and milk production. Not sure what happened to that. However, as the Oil&Gas sector decline, a return to sustainable agriculture with family owned farms, will become increasingly necessary. A valuable lesson for Guyanese who are mostly intoxicated with new Oil.
Fuad, I couldn't agree more.
first time to see you , but I will be watching , you are a great teacher , see you again soon
Wow I didn't know we had that milking system technology in Trinidad. Well done
Me to i did not know and i live in trinidad
Located where
Why do you think Trinidad is so backward, really.
@@islandgirl3330 well first of all we don't advertise or showcase our local businesses in such a way that it draws interested personnel or tourists. A lot of successful stories are unheard of
@@nvidiasniper lmfao she went quiet 🤫 😂
The animals are very very nice and I like the ducks and the goat also the birds 😍❤️👌, and my name is reshma bhola and I am 23 years old ok thank you for letting me see the video with the animals ❤️💕❤️😊
Lovely as seen in Trinidad lovely animals and well organized but one thing though do these animals go outside in the sunshine?
Which milk has the higher butter content? Is this sold separately or advertised differently?
Gyal yuh nice eh, oh gud.
Wow this is great knowledge....I will look out for the goats milk on the shelves
Omg my home town penal have not been in trinidad for awhile please hit me up how much for a whole goat thanks my next trip want to feast. World to penal good stuff. ps would like to come thur and visit the farm.
You look beautiful Madam. Stay safe.
Wow I love it.. can anyone visit there?
Unfortunately it's not open to the public
👍🏼
The ending tho...😂
😂😂😂 3:13...I see what you did there
You are sooooo cute!
Forget about the farm, how about the host? She's like a long ice cold glass of lemonade under a shady tree on very hot sunny day...
Beautiful birds like that in cages, awful! Completely disgraceful.
Congratulations. This is the type of production that is needed in Trinidad. Large scale farms in order to spend less on importing food. Too much negative news are put out by the media about the country. You should include tours as part of the tourist sector. I am sure you can fit in one or two tours a month especially for schools. I would love to visit on my next trip. The goats are loving but unfortunately one day they will go to market.
I like the quality of this video. Its good to see such an organized farm in Trinidad and Tobago. I have hope for us feeding ourselves.
Hi, Khristy, this was informative and encouraging. I just looked at an equally encouraging video on a small goat farmer in Jamaica. Keep up the good work. Can we have another video, this time on free-run livestock?
Great place. Lovely healthy.looking animals. Llovely lass knows her job. Well said. Cute laugh. I used.to mind those same kind of goats as a boy. Even drank donkey milk. Sheep dumb but careful. Great way to go. May farm propsper and bacome tourist attraction for foreigners. Will sell TnT well. God bless.
Hi this was wonderful. Informative and inspiring. Wanted to see more of your birds tho.
A Cemento
those birds are on the endangered species list
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
You really know and love your goats it is really nice to see a woman in charge of this milk farm👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Nice video and good encouragement for other farmers to see. Shout out from Jamaica
That’s fantastic never new that Farm exists. Great job and service

I am really proud and amazed by your passion and the cleanliness and great vibration on this farm !
- Healthy happy animals
- surrounded by beautiful nature
- Technology and development
- Variety of animals
- A beauty woman who knows her Science and animals...and is happy and smiling ❤🌺🌺🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🌴🌴🌴💯💯
I hope that these animals are free range and are not treated with antibiotics and fed hormones. . I was raised in T'DAD and had goates. They were free range and all natural. The milk was DELICIOUS.
Very admirable work being done at your farm.
Just wonderful to see progressive agriculture in Trinidad and Tobago. This was enjoyable well done!
Enjoyed the tour of that goat farm those goats look so friendly.it a pity they gotta be on our plate as food.i herd that goat milk is better than cows milk.Anyway I do not drink goat but I like goat cheese
Bought that a few occasions in the grocery...yummy yummy is all i could say💯💯keep up the good work.
Anyone here from Mrs.Boxhill's class. This is K'hill
I really love goat milk, but could never seem to find it in the grocery. How do I get the (seinan?) Goat milk which has less fat. Can I purchase retail from the farm if I come to penal? Thanks for putting up this video. Really enjoyed it.
Great vid, than you. The farmers should let those parrots/birds out of the cage, it's cruel and unnecessary..
Greetings from a cattle ranch in costa rica. Good luck !
Nice beautiful farm . Great info,nice video
This is a good video showing livestock farming in the Caribbean
I recently tried their sorrel and pineapple yogurts and they were extremely delicious! As someone who is lactose intolerant, I'll definitely be supporting them in the future.
Thanks for this video. I am impressed by the seemingly cleanliness of the farm and the healthy animals. Congrats
Love your farm and goats❤❤❤
You can clearly see the love, passion and dedication in this farm. Please do a part 2 of the farmers.
Must say good job excellent
People gotta ease off the meat and back to once per week, see how many fat people around. When your fat it means oxygen restrictions to the brain, it also means your not getttimg brain food which is omega . No the term fat and stupid comes in to play here. The meat is addictive because of the feeds that are given to the animal, thus leading to issues
I live in the uk and wil definitely visit your farm whenever i visit Trinidad. Your farm looks amazing,its good to know Trinidad and Tobago has such farming technology for milking farm.
Where is this farm located? It’s good to see young people involved in agriculture

@@eatahfood 💯
Is it just me our this chick is so hot
Unpasteurized milk would also be nice. Raw is more nutritious.
Hello ... my dream has been to start the production of goat meat and milk as they do on their farm ... I live in Colombia ... Could you help me? ... my financial situation is very difficult and I need to start this project as soon as possible ... Thank you. God bless you
You can contact the Trinidad and Tobago Goat and Sheep Society

I give full respect to you all for all the different animals on the farm my son will love to come see your farm
Why take away the kids from their mothers. They need their mother's . milk more than us.

That's pretty cool. Never knew we had something like this in Trinidad
Largest in the Caribbean too!
Do you all export milk ,cheese or poultry to Washington DC.
How can i meet jou if i came with vacancy for the tour
. i am from suriname
This lady with orange T-shirt looks like Indian origin
Yes, she is. She is probably a descendant of Indians who were moved by the British to their plantations around the world, including places like Fiji. Remember Vijay Singh?
Her origin is somewhat hidden in her last name; I'll let you figure that out.
Edit: Another example is Nicki Minaj -- yes, THAT Nicki Minaj. Minaj is a corruption of "Maharaj".
Raja A East Indians were taken to the sugar estates after the abolition of slavery in the 1800’s by the British from the Indian states of Uttar Pradesh, Bihar & Madras. After working on the sugarcane plantations many of us went on to do agricultural work & open up small businesses . We now number @ 600,000 in Trinidad 🇹🇹.
Mr SG it sounds really good that u started a business in a different country, congratulations, I always wanted to visit the Caribbean islands n that’s my ambition.
Do you make "paynoos" with the 1st day goat milk? Will like to taste it if you do?. But excellent farm you have there.
Hi would love to pay your farm a visit, my family and I start to visit places of interest in Trinidad I think this would be a good place to visit
