点评:With the arrival of warmer weather, the Gorgeous Goat Creamery I. Stockton has brought back goat happy hour on Fridays, from 4:00 to 6:00 PM.
This is a hidden gem. The business is run by a young couple who have a herd of about 100 goats. It is located off Featherbed Lane, which runs past farms and large properties.
You need to spot their sign and travel along a one lane road through the woods before you arrive. There is a small wood structure housing the farm store.
Goat happy hour revolves around a series of tables and chairs under a couple of pop up tents. Yo7 bring your own snacks and beverages. There is a pen with several of the goats about 20 feet away. You can lean over the fence and pet the goats or feed them with the foliage that is everywhere.
We realized this is a great deal when we first discovered it a year or two ago. We started the tradition of quietly handing the couple $10 a head because we felt there should be an entertainment charge! I think they have built that into this year’s offering as a cover charge. It is also a good idea to buy the goat milk, goat yogurt, goat cheese or goat soap from the little shop.
Are there negatives? You should like quirky. They have less than ten parking spaces. These are minor issues.
This is a favorite summer activity for us, weather permitting.
翻译:随着天气转暖,位于斯托克顿的 Gorgeous Goat Creamery 重新恢复了每周五下午4点至6点的“山羊欢乐时光”活动。
这里真是个藏匿于市郊的宝藏之地。这家牧场由一对年轻夫妇经营,他们饲养着约100只山羊。牧场坐落于Featherbed Lane旁,这条路蜿蜒穿过诸多农场及大片私人领地。
抵达前,你需要找到他们的指示牌,然后沿着一条穿过树林的单行道前行。牧场商店就设在一座小巧的木制建筑中。山羊欢乐时光活动是在几顶临时搭建的帐篷下,围绕着一排桌椅来进行的。大家需要自备零食和饮料。在大约20英尺远的地方有个围栏,里面有几只山羊。你可以趴在围栏上抚摸这些山羊,也可以用随处可见的草叶来喂它们。
一两年前我们第一次发现这个地方时,就意识到它绝对物超所值。我们养成了悄悄给每对夫妇10美元的传统,因为我们觉得理应收取一些娱乐费用!我想今年他们也把这笔费用算入了入场费中。另外,去小卖部购买羊奶、羊酸奶、羊奶酪或羊奶皂也是个不错的主意。
有什么缺点吗?你得喜欢那种别致有趣的风格才行。这里的停车位不到十个,不过这些都只是小问题罢了。
只要天气允许,这可是我们最喜欢的夏日活动呢。
