A Farm Visit Is Included

Every cow cuddle includes a sanctuary visit, so there is no need to buy an extra ticket. You are welcome to visit the other animals as long as you like before or after your session.

Enjoy two hours of peaceful bliss surrounded by the soothing sounds of nature and the animals. It is a simple, memorable way to spend time with someone you love.

Your Choice of Pavilion

Relax with a snack, meal, or drink in one of our pavilions, either at the pond or near the goats. Both offer a peaceful view and plenty of animal company.

Bring Your Own Basket

Pack your own picnic basket and drinks for a romantic date night or a relaxing daytime picnic. The farm is BYOB, and you can pair your picnic with a cow cuddle for a truly special outing.
