Best cow cuddles ever!
kalina smith.
So much fun. Feeding and cuddling goals are very relaxing.
a hundred dollars to pet cows is crazy price.
Fun to visit and pet the baby goats and cows.
One of the best experiences we’ve had! We booked a cow cuddling session and it was everything I had hoped for and more. The cows were adorable and so sweet, and Natalie was so kind and shared a lot of great info about the cows! We will definitely be back 😊
We booked an hour session of the "mini cow cuddles." While we were in there, the cows charged at my mom and I 3 times. We weren't provided treats for them, or brushes or anything, and they did not seem social enough to be doing social cuddle time with people. We only spent 30 minutes here but still paid full price which was $100. The farm is also extremely messy. It was sweet to meet the animals, and I appreciate the sentiment, but I think this was an extremely over priced service.
This is one of my favorite experiences ever!! The cow cuddles were beyond my expectations and it filled my soul with so much joy. I love cows but am not in a place to have one. This was perfect and it was worth every penny to have this moment. Thank you, beyond words!!
We did the Mini cow cuddles and the lady that led us to the cows was so nice! I asked some questions about the cows (I'm a city girl🤣) and she answered clearly and was very sweet. Saw ducks, barncats, goats, chickens. It was a very calming experience and the cows are very desensitized to touch and calm.
Super sweet animals- I particularly enjoyed the mini cows! Having some pop up vendors was also wonderful- Especially The Midnight Bakery. Her sweets and bread are beyond delicious! Easy to find and family friendly, I highly recommend checking it out!
Carpenter Creek Ranch is a small family micro dairy in Forest Grove, Oregon selling raw goat milk through a herdshare, with weekly on farm pickup and Raw Milk Institute standard testing.
Carpenter Creek Ranch is Tom and Natalie Epler's small family farm and micro dairy in the rural community of Dilley, outside Forest Grove, Oregon. The homestead sits on 20 acres of pastures, hay fields and historic barns, with Carpenter Creek running along the northern edge, and is home to dairy goats and a herd of miniature cattle.
The ranch's raw goat milk is sold through a herdshare: members own a share of the milking herd and collect a gallon or half gallon of fresh, chilled milk from the farm each week, year round. Milk is tested monthly to Raw Milk Institute guidelines, which are stricter than state requirements, and antibiotics are never used routinely; any treated goat leaves the milking lineup. Visitors come for baby goat cuddles in spring, the pumpkin patch in autumn and mini cow cuddles all year.
