Wingwood Farm was established in 1974 by Karen Smith with the support of her husband, Walter and later her two daughters, Fauna and Trinity. With Karen at the helm , we have been the breeders of some truly awesome does and bucks, making a small contribution to the advancement of the Nubian breed along the way. In 2019 Karen was awarded the Breeder of Excellence Award by The International Nubian Breeders Association. Wingwood Farm is really a family affair with animals living at Karen and Walter's, Fauna and Tam's and on occasion Trinity's. 2020 marked the arrival of the newest member of the Wingwood Farm human herd, Fauna and Tamati's son, Nikau. Karen has taken a step back from the public face of Wingwood Farm, but will continue to be intimately involved in management of the herd and is always more than happy to talk Nubians with anyone!!

1st Place Dairy Herd 2023 ADGA National Show:
GCH Avignon, GCH Avocet, ANNAPURNA, GCH AVril
Wingwood Farm is a reservoir of some pretty impressive genetics and we are particularly pleased with the progress we have made in the last few years in the production end of things. Every animal in our herd goes back to a doe, My-Happiness Tamah, that we purchased in 1980 demonstrating the dedication of our family to continue to breed and improve our Nubians. We have had many does and bucks on the ELITE lists since its inception in 2015 and have had several Top-Ten animals in the last few years. Additionally, we have seen an increase in our rolling herd average. E
In 2019, 2021 and 2023 we attended the ADGA National Show.
