Preparing for your Visit

  • Please wear clothes that can get dirty
  • Please wear closed-toe shoes
  • Please arrive 10-15 minutes ahead of your reservation to allow time to check in, sign a waiver, wash hands and be directed to your encounter meeting location
  • Goats like to climb so they may jump and climb on your legs... Goats don't wear shoes, they have hooves, so it will feel a little weird or spiky on your legs. 
  • Goats like to nibble and chew on shoe strings, clothing and anything else you may bring in the corral. 
  • You will be in a corral where animals live and poo! You might get dirty (or other things) on you. Animals go to the bathroom whenever and wherever.
  • Guests must wash their hands before entering the corral and exiting the corral. This is for the safety of the Animals AND Guests. 
  • Check in at the Lavender Gift Shop

Notes:

  • This activity is not recommended for pregnant women 
  • Children must be accompanied by an adult ticket
  • Our animals are friendly; however, still Farm animals and can be unpredictable.
