Goat Walking
Walk alongside goats and take time to connect with the outdoors, with others, and with yourself. Anyone leading a goat must be at least 6 years old, while younger children may come with a parent or guardian without buying their own ticket. Tickets are purchased per goat, so select the number of goats you want to walk rather than the number of people attending. Each ticket is $5, and upon arrival at the farm you will receive a $5 Creme Cash certificate that can be applied to an in-store purchase of $25 or more made the same day.
At the Farm - Creme de la CropMotherhood Together: Baby Bonding, Community & Calm
A calm, 90-minute gathering designed for new mothers focuses on slowing down, bonding with baby, and building meaningful connections. Spend unhurried time with your little one while learning gentle infant massage techniques that can support sleep, strengthen attachment, and nurture growing bodies. The experience then shifts into a relaxed, supportive conversation with other moms who understand the early months, and concludes with simple mindfulness tools that are practical for long nights, hard days, and everything in between. This event is intended for mothers with babies between 4 weeks and 6 months old. The cost is $44 per participating mother. Registration is non-refundable, but it can be transferred to another mother by emailing sierra@onevalpo.com. The gathering is facilitated by Smadar Garritson, a maternal mental health therapist with over 10 years of experience supporting new moms, lead clinician for the Maternal Wellness Program at Huntington Hospital, certified lactation educator, trained doula and hypnobirthing practitioner, and adjunct instructor at the Keck School of Medicine of USC, offering a warm and steady presence throughout.
