Description
Holle Goat Stage 1 is a triple-certified organic goat milk infant formula for babies from birth to 6 months. Certified EU Organic, Bio-Siegel (Germany's national organic seal), and Demeter Biodynamic, it represents the highest combination of organic standards available in European baby formula. This is the 400g German-market version, made with organic whole goat milk from Demeter biodynamic farms. It can be used as a complete food source from birth or as a supplement to breast milk. Goat milk naturally contains A2 beta-casein protein and forms a smaller, softer curd during digestion compared to standard cow milk. This is one reason parents of babies who experience discomfort with cow milk formulas often find goat milk formula to be a gentler alternative. Holle Goat Stage 1 uses exclusively organic whole goat milk (not skimmed), preserving the natural protein and fat profile of the milk.
Stage 1 provides both DHA (15mg per 100ml) from microalgae and ARA (15mg per 100ml) from Mortierella alpina, supporting brain and eye development from birth. It also includes choline (22mg per 100ml), inositol (3.4mg per 100ml), and L-carnitine (1.1mg per 100ml) for early infant development. Because DHA comes from algae rather than fish oil, this formula is suitable for vegetarian families. Furthermore, it contains essential nutrients such as iron, calcium, and zinc, plus vitamins A, B12, C, and D. The formula is created to be very simple and nutritious and is also available in Holle Goat German Stage Pre, Holle Goat Stage 2, Stage 3, and Stage 4.
Holle is one of the world's most well-respected organic baby formula brands, with a decades-long commitment to using only high-quality, sustainably sourced ingredients from well-cared-for animals. Their Goat milk formula is made from Demeter, grass-fed goat milk. All products are formulated under strict EU regulations for Organic foods and checked before distribution.

Organic Formula Shop works closely with Holle so that we can guarantee 100% original products and fresh baby formula with expiration dates of at least six months. With every order, you’ll receive carefully packaged boxes of Holle formulas, each of which contains:
- 400 grams (14.1 oz) of formula powder. This should make approximately 2950 ml (100 fl oz) of the prepared formula;
- a specially designed measuring spoon of 4.5 grams of dry formula powder (0.159 ounces)
- Holle uses the European expiration date notation, which reads DD/MM/YYYY
Please note:
- If your baby has been diagnosed with a cow’s milk protein allergy (rather than just showing signs of sensitivity), it is not very likely that Holle goat milk formulas will be suitable. You might consider one of our hypoallergenic formulas, which contain hydrolyzed proteins less likely to provoke an allergenic response.
- Before deciding to bottle-feed, we advise consulting your pediatrician.
