Cuteness Overload: Baby Goat Experience in Lodi CA (Good Night Goats at Spenker Family Farm)

Warning: this vlog will make you want to adopt a baby goat! This is an experience I've been wanting to go to for years but the timing never worked out until this year. Every spring, Spenker Family Farm in Lodi, California has an adorable family friendly event called Good Night Goats where people can come cuddle baby goats, play with them, and tire them out before they go to sleep. They provide toys, teeters, and books for you to read to the babies.

For Good Night Goats, children under the age of 15 must be accompanied by an adult and all children must be over the age of 4 to attend. You spend about 30 minutes with the baby goats and then you head into the tasting room to finish the evening with cookies and goat milk. Spenker Family Farm is also a dairy, creamery, and winery so you can purchase their products in the tasting room such as goat cheese, wine by the glass or bottle, and products made with goat milk such as body lotion and soaps. They also have Good Night Goats for Grown Ups event which comes with a wine tasting instead of milk and cookies. These events only happen in the Spring so be sure to check the Spenker Family Farm social media page to find out when they list the dates:   / spenkerfamilyfarm  

Now if you've missed the baby goat events, they still have other goat events you can participate in! I personally have not been to them but I've seen pictures from their Goat Yoga, Goat Yoga and Sound bath, and Painting with Goats events that look so fun! You can also see (but not interact with) the goats on your regular wine tasting visits to their farm tasting room. We've done a goat cheese and wine pairing tasting that was a unique tasting experience. You can also stop by and just make a purchase of their goat cheese and products any time they are open.

After the event, we headed into downtown Lodi for dinner at Tequileros Cantina for a delicious dinner for Mexican food including tacos, burritos, quesadillas, loaded fries, etc... They have locations in a couple towns in this area.
