This tour is only offered on Thur-Sun., typically lasts 3-4 hours and is for groups up to 4 people. The tour fee is per group, not per person. Please contact us directly at thefarmhousebeergarden@gmail.com for booking larger groups. Please read the entire description before booking. You and your group will be picked up at The Farmhouse and driven 15 minutes to Intervale Farm, down gravel driveways and fenced areas, taking in the stunning scenery as we journey right into the heart of our pastures. Here, you'll get up close and personal with our majestic adult Scottish Highlands, and really have the chance to immerse yourself in their world! Go beyond the fence line, and just taking photos, and engage directly with our shaggy-coated cows as they offer slobbery licks in exchange for the provided cattle treats! When you are ready, we'll make our way back to the barn to encounter the adorable fluffy calves in our weaning field. Here, you’ll have the chance to engage in a range of hands-on interactions, from gently petting and brushing their fluffy coats, to sharing affectionate nose bops, and cow hugs and kisses. Throughout our time together, you'll be able to ask questions, become acquainted with their unique names, charming personalities, and gain a deeper understanding of the breed. You will have every opportunity to embrace your time here and forge a special connection with these adorable creatures. As you bid farewell, expect to carry a bit of the farm with you—a sprinkle of slobber on your pants, a hint of poop on your shoes, and your heart brimming with cherished memories!
