Spring is just around the corner, and that means one thing—baby goat season! Over the years, so many of you have made visiting the farm a yearly tradition, turning a trip to see the babies into a full weekend adventure with family and friends. To make planning even easier, we’ve put together this Weekend in Cambria Guide, packed with all the places we personally love—plus some insider tips and our favorite orders. (You might notice we have a thing for plant shops and outdoor adventures!)
Meet the Babies! 🐐
The baby goats start arriving at the end of February, with peak cuteness happening from mid-March through April. It’s the absolute best time to visit, and trust us—there’s nothing quite like snuggling a baby goat to welcome spring!
Book a farm tour to meet the baby goats, explore the farm, and get an inside look at our creamery.
