Get goaty at CUESA’s DIY arts and crafts station! Stop by to fashion your own personalized goat horns. All are welcome for family-friendly fun (under the archway, next to CUESA Classroom). Free.
10 am - 1 pm: Pet or View the Goats from Toluma Farms
Bring the kids to play with adorable baby goats from Toluma Farms and Tomales Farmstead Creamery in the Goat Festival petting stable (south driveway, near the Sur La Table store).

Petting time slots include a 5-minute period to line up before the petting, 8-minutes in the pen with the goats, and a 2-minute buffer period to transition between groups. Please show up on time with your printed ticket and time slot. Due to high demand, we cannot offer you a different time slot if you miss your allotted time frame.
