“You do not need to earn rest. You are allowed to come exactly as you are — tired, tender, joyful, or unsure — and the animals will meet you there.”

Ways to spend a morning

Each visit is small on purpose. Groups stay under twelve so every guest — and every animal — gets the time and softness they deserve.

Meet the Herd

90 minutes · $45

A slow, guided walk to say hello to Beatrice the Highland cow, our miniature donkeys, alpacas, and the whole soft-nosed cast.

Sunrise Yoga in the Pasture

75 minutes · $60

Roll out your mat while the mist lifts. Gentle flow with Highland cows grazing nearby — no experience needed, only stretchy pants.

Cow Cuddle Therapy

45 minutes · $85

One-on-one time in the pasture with a Highland cow, a soft blanket, and permission to simply be. Yes, it is as healing as it sounds.

Little Farmers Morning

2 hours · $35 / child

For ages 3–10. Bottle-feed lambs, collect eggs from our silkies, and finish with warm biscuits on the porch.

Miniature Highland cows, professional cuddlers

Fig, Fern & Clover

Nigerian dwarf goats, gold-medal fence climbers

Marigold

Rescue pig — loves belly rubs and blueberries

Alpacas, spectacular hair, mildly dramatic

Kind words

What guests carry home

“I cried into the neck of a Highland cow named Willow and left feeling lighter than I have in a year. This ranch is real magic.”

Marisol A.

Retreat guest, September

“My daughter still talks about the baby goats. It was the softest, warmest morning we've ever spent as a family.”

The Halvorsen Family

Little Farmers Morning

“I came for a break from screens. I left with a journal full of ideas and a very muddy pair of boots.”
