Dairy Tour:
—Watch us milk cows ... and more!

The cutest little calf

Tours take about 1-1/2 hours

Highlights: Take a hay ride around the farm and see Ben Cagle and his Border Collie, Tib, herd the cows. Get a first-hand look at how a live cow is milked. When you visit the Processing Facility — learn how milk gets from the cow to the grocery store!

We're completely 'hands on' in the calf barn. You can feed cabbage to the baby calves and enjoy watching them suck good Cagle's Milk from a bottle. They love the attention they get from visitors. And after the hayride, you can stop to feed the goats -- and we have lots of them to feed!

We'll show you our Cow Subway and seasonal attractions on the farm along the hayride. At the end, you can stop off in Clayton & Estelle's Country Market for gifts and goodies.
