- I recommend the Farmstead cheese tour: $58. You see the entire farm and operation, and you get to milk a goat. It's great. - Mingling with the goats is very relaxing. It's worth the trip. - Starting around February/March you can see the baby goats; they are bigger in the summer. - Their goat cheese products have less of a gamey goat flavor; it's more of a clean tangy flavor from the salty ocean breeze. - Afterward, I recommend stopping at Arcangeli Grocery in town to pick up some of their bread. - Sante Arcangeli winery has wine tasting in the second floor hay loft. For the products in the shop, there is no info on the website, so here's the inventory: Strawberry Jam: $18 for 8 oz. Pescadero strawberries, lemon juice, sugar Olallieberry Jam: $18 for 8 oz. Pescadero ollalieberries, lemon juice, sguar Olallieberry Vinaigrette, 250ml, $26 Olallieberry nectar 250ml, $26 Olallieberry Vinegar, 375ml: Olallieberry juice and rice vinegar. $32 Chocolate pot $12.

My friend and I made our way to Pescardero from Pacifica after our little beach picnic. Had a fun time visiting this goat farm. She used to work nearby, so she's been here before while this is my first time. Because I had my pup with us, we took turns going into the farm and the store to look around. Harley Farms have working Anatolian shepherds guarding their goats, so it's against their rules to bring your dog into the farm/store as they are seen as predators. They can stay outside while leashed which is what we did with my pup. While there, we were able to pet some baby goats, took photos of the goats, the little horse, birds and the farm. We both brought like $100+ worth of goat cheese, pepperoni, nuts, etc. There's an area where you can sample wine but we didn't partake. A bit expensive and touristy, but we still enjoyed. Located on North St, around the bend from Pescardero Creek Rd. read more

Had the best time here!! I did a farm tour and it was so fun and educational! Our guide Rita was amazing and super knowledgeable. The tour includes a historical overview of the land and farm as well as tons of info about the goats and cheese making process. I also loved being able to try milking the goats! The tour includes cheese tasting, which was also very good Logistically, everything was great. There was plenty of parking, the tour started on time, the facilities were very clean, and the staff are all so friendly. If possible, I'd definitely recommend the earlier tour, since the later tour was much more packed. read more

Harley Farms - Goats - Cheese Shops Near Me - Pescadero, California

Small goat farm with friendly and passionate staff who seem to truly care about the farm. They sell items such as lotion, soap, cheeses, honey and more. Everything is a bit pricey but you pay for the quality since everything is produced right in the farm. They had over 100 baby goats when we went and we were lucky to be able to interact with them through the fence. We didn't go on the tour since it was sold out when we went but saw lots of people who were happy with their tours. They have a cute loft upstairs of the store with wine tasting. It's a small cozy farm but I highly recommend checking them out. We loved the tomato basil cheese spread! read more

Lots of newborn kids, it said they have 200 new baby goats every year, whoa!! The store sells many goat product from lotion, candle, to cheese. Tasted freshly made ricotta and it was really great!!! Upstairs there is a wine tasting room which I didn't go to. There is picnic area beyond the parking space, bathroom is portable but kept cleaned. Plan to come back next time to have the whole experience. read more

I can't pass by Pescadero without stopping to say hello to all these precious creatures.

I adore this wonderful place and what they do for the community. read more

My absolute favorite part about living on the coast is being able to take a quick trip down to visit the babies on this farm during kidding season.

Also, don't sleep on their freshly squeezed mint lemonade which is as refreshing as any margarita I have ever had read more

We booked the Your Kids with Our Kids tour and it was a total hit. I emailed before to make sure it was ok to bring an older kiddo who was visiting and they accommodated without a problem. Hannah (sp?) was our guide and she was absolutely wonderful. She was patient, and knowledgeable, and made the tour fun for all ages. Engaging with the sweet baby goats was a total hit. Tour timing was great and it didn't feel rushed at all. Don't skip the farm shop after to pick up some pantry staples. 10/10 - it was the perfect first week of summer outing. Harley Farms is the best and we hope to be back soon. Thank you for a memorable morning! read more

Adorable goat farm in pescadero which is one of the attractions of this lovely coastal town. It's free to visit the farm and see the goats, however the merchandise is quite expensive. They have a fantastic array of jams, soaps, cheeses etc, but be aware of the prices. It wasn't crowded when I went last Saturday, so it was nice to explore the grounds and see the goats. There were a few babies but I hear that there are many more in the springtime. It's a fun weekend activity, especially if you add on pigeon point lighthouse and lunch in half moon bay! read more

Nature, animals, delicious cheese, and fun farm facts -- this place has it all. I came for the baby goat tour and can confirm: cuteness overload! The goats were like puppies (both the babies and the more mature ones), vying for pets and attention (and maybe a little shoelace nibble), and it was so clear how well cared for and happy all the animals are. Loved learning about the farm itself -- a poignant reminder of how disconnected most of us have become from where our food comes from. The ambiance was idyllic: wildflowers, horses casually grazing nearby, barn cats napping in the sun, and a wine tasting space in the main barn's original hayloft. Even if you don't book a tour, you can still wander the grounds, visit the gift shop, and soak in the peaceful atmosphere. But I highly recommend joining one of the tours for the full experience -- it's absolutely worth it! read more

Someone came all the way from Indiana to go to this goats farm. I had to see for myself. I was in the neighborhood. They have goat farm tour but you got to sign up in advance and it costs $59. I visited spur of the moment and no tour that day. It is booked in advance. I did see the baby goats that were 4 months old. Came at the right time because it was feeding time. They had this big paint bucket with 10 different spouts and the baby goats (kid) were sucking so fast at the same time. 5 min and that was it. One kid was jumping from spout to spout. He or she didnt get enough time to suck. The human kids were fascinated and was oetting the goats. There's a small store selling cosmetics, pots made in Columbia called La Chamba. Really cool. I got a small tub of garlic goat cream cheese, $16. Very mild goat taste, not gamey. Smooth and creamy. They have a upper room with a beautiful medieval wood carved long table. Very cool. You can rent that space. read more

The animals are great. Be sure to go early spring to see baby goats. They are like puppies and are very soft to touch! Check out the store for some cheese, honey, lemonade, and meat. It's a small place and frankly you don't get to cover much ground without touring it. But the merch and cheese are worth driving to if you're in the Pescadero/Butano area. read more

Goat cheese and baby goats galore! We've been coming to Harley farms for at least a decade and never get tired of it. It's so much fun to come in late winter/early spring and see all the baby goats. We came the first week of spring this year and over 120 babies had already been born, with about 70 more expected. They have a pen of the young goats that you can stop by and watch and pet them. It was closed for entrance to visitors this time but in the past you've been able to go in and get up close with them. Aside from the goats they have a pig and lama, the lama when up close enough to see is Sumer fun to watch. Sometimes if you're lucky the barn cat will also make an appearance. Near the parking, which is plentiful, there's a pond with some picnic tables around it. You can get limited snacks in the shop or bring your own picnic - I recommend bringing them supplementing with some of the goat cheese. A tasting room also recently opened on the property, a nice addition to extends your time there. It seems every time we've gone the last few years the layout of the store has changed and they've added a new product, this time it was rosemary salted almonds. Goat cheese prices have increased quite a bit over the years and they no longer have cheese samples like they did before Covid, but one can't help but be mesmerized by all the offering they have. From olive oils, to honey, soap, lotions, and just about any variation of goat cheese you can imagine, it's hard to leave that shop empty handed...though it was even harder when samples were a thing. read more

Little Billy goats everywhere! My heart explodes with happiness for this unique experience of nature, at this beautiful farmstead and local gem. If you're planning a trip, make reservations in advance, since the tours fill up quickly. You can visit the property without a tour, however. We we given the opportunity to join in the baby goat tour with the mamas and babies, on a beautiful Saturday morning. This gorgeous working farm has acres of natural beauty, and is just a short jaunt from Half Moon Bay. Walking into their pens with them surrounding us, and being able to learn about them, and give them extra love. All the while them trying to nibble our laces, jackets, and anything they could get to. It's literally joyful. Hannah, our guide, was a lovely and knowledgeable woman about all things goat related. She took on a tour of the property, coupled with opportunities to hold the baby goats, and meet and greet the others; their pens and milking areas, and more. Other animals were also found throughout our time there, including their farm dogs, and their alpaca "Jimmy". We didn't greet Jimmy, as he is protective and can spit a nasty game. Steered clear of him. At the conclusion of the tour, we opted to venture into their shop with fresh goat cheese aplenty, along with oalliebery jam and nectar. Since they are a Farmstead, all is made in house from the bounty found on the farm. Absolutely delicious, and so fresh. Thank you for the experience. We cannot wait to return. read more

It's a cute farm with cows and goats. Little baby goats definitely attracted crowds. Petting goats were not an option here and the area they make cheese were somewhat closed to the public view so the store was pretty much the only area we can browse. Unfortunately I didn't feel the welcome vibe from the person working at the store and the cheese was priced somewhat "higher." We got goat cheese with chives and Apricot/Pistachio Goat Cheese (both were good with crackers) Overall this is a place good for quick stop for little ones. read more

We went home with chive goat cheese and feta which were creamy and delicious! I wish they had fresh goat milk to taste, or goat milk ice cream/soft serve. read more

Cute little goat farm. Nice place to stop with the kids. They have a limited offering of goat cheese. About 4 types. I bought a chèvre I think it was $12.00 for about 4 oz. They don't allow you to taste any cheese so you buy blind. It was good, very mild. I prefer a more robust flavorful Cheese. read more

I have been coming to Harley Farms for over a decade. I have a soft spot for this rustic local business. A reservation and $55 is now required to tour (and essentially to pet the goats) which wasn't a requirement back when my daughter was young. Keep in mind it's still free to come to the Farm Shop and to view the goats from just outside the gate. We visit to soak in the pastoral Pescadero farm setting, and to shop in their retail farm store for fresh goat cheese. Favorites include the rounds topped with dried apricot or edible flowers or their goat cheese in olive oil, which is a nice and large party item. The shop has diversified and now sells a fancy $12 lavender lemonade and an assortment of pricey, lux goat milk body products, but I'm primarily a sucker for their refrigerated goat cheese rounds. read more

Harley Farms - Goat milk processing operation at Harley Farms - Cheese Shops Near Me - Pescadero, California

I love this place. Full disclosure though, I might be just a bit...very...biased because I love baby animals, especially baby goats. I think baby goats became my favorite farm animal of all time. We went in March, and apparently there were 120+ baby goats when we visited, and they're expecting ~250 babies to be born this year (spring time). You'll see (and touch) the baby goats right next to the parking lot. They're so cute! They run toward you for attention too. The goats were split into multiple sections. You'll be able to see the even younger babies behind the grass-chewing baby goats near the parking lot fence, but there was another enclosed pen near the store for you to pet the baby goats. The grown-up goats are all the way in the back, in the open grass area, 1 minute walk away from the parking lot. I saw an llama, but he/she was kinda far. I didn't see the donkey that people mentioned in the reviews and I didn't get to go in the barn, but I'm sure you'll get to get to see everything and get a closer experience with the animals if you opt for the paid tour. To get to the shop from the parking lot, you'll have to go around (head toward the street) to find the entrance. They have a lot of interesting goat-related items in the shop, including olive oil, honey, crackers, lotion, cheese, souvenirs, ready-to-eat food, salami, ravioli etc. By interesting, I meant different flavors. Lotsa habanero items there too. The goat cheese are located inside the mini fridge (there are 2 mini fridges). We got a savory puff pastry (asparagus and goat cheese) and a lavender honey goat cheese. The puff pastry tasted great, especially with the goat cheese, I just wish it was warm. The lavender honey goat cheese was expensive compared to the other flavor available there, but wow, it tastes soo good. I loved that goat cheese is soft and creamy, but I'm even more amazed that I was actually able to taste both the honey and lavender in the cheese. I paired the cheese with an original-flavored thin crisp that I bought from Whole Food. I requested to go here since I was looking for things to do in the Bay Area. Originally, I wanted to go for hikes, but it was supposed to rain, so I purposely only planned to go to the farm. It was definitely worth the long ride over! You get to enjoy the pretty scenery along Highway 1. read more

I think I would have had a better experience if I had come in the spring when the baby goats were younger. But I came during the summer and so the goats were too big to be held. I came here for the farm tour with my parents. It was $55 per person for a 1.5 hour tour. Our tour guide spent the first 45 minutes talking to us about the history of Pescadero, the local Native American tribes who lived here, and the process of making goat milk into cheese. While I believe that these things are good to say, couldn't you give us the abridged version man lol?? My mom was falling asleep during her talk. Like let us have more time with the animals :( Anywho we did eventually get to see the baby goats, they only let us pet one of them but it had a bunch of bugs on it so I was a little reluctant to pet it. We were eventually let into the area with the adult goats. At first there is a little fenced off walkway where you can observe the goats while separated from them. I wish we had more time on this walkway to observe them and take pictures but instead, we were rushed to move through it quickly by the tour guide. It was kind of cool when our tour guide prompted all the goats to rush out of the barn and into the field; I had no idea how much pee and poo they would be doing though! You really have to be aware of where you're standing or else you'd get pee and poo on yourself. Naturally you will step on poo at some point during the tour. Honestly I was most happy petting the two dogs they have on the farm to protect the goats from predators. Goats are kind of scary man like there's a large amount of pee/poo, plus they will bite your clothes. At the end of the tour, you get to try a sample of cheese made from goat milk. This was very tasty. As participants of the tour, you get 10% off an item from the gift shop. My 3 family members each got a cheese since we learned that goat milk cheese is so dang good. My final thoughts are that I am glad that we came here to learn the benefits of goat milk, however I feel that the tour price is so ridiculous when most of it is just a lecture. You're better off just observing the animals from outside the fences, which you can do for free. read more

My daughter and I went for my belated Mother's Day present. It was an hour and a half tour, but the time flew by! It was so peaceful and beautiful out there. I loved hearing about the history of the place. It was great to know that they wasted little out there. Also, if they have goats who are not fit for milking or mating, they find homes for them instead of killing them. Based on the tour, Dee has started this from the ground up with integrity and knowledge. Their cheese and jams are so good. Plus you get a discount if you go on the goat tour. I loved their working dogs and cats as well! read more

There is a goat farm in Pescadero, owned by the wife of Duarte's owner, that provides some time with the goats. The farm also has a very nice store with house made cheeses, local jams, farm honey and different meats. No goat meat though. There is a picnic area down by the pond with tables and benches. Can you say "idyllic"? A local winery holds tastings in the large barn. Where there are more goats. =!8^] The tour was very thorough with lots of history, and goat handling . BTW, they hire their goats out as "lawn mowers" if one is interested. We went through the entire farm with a very knowledgeable guide. We went out into the pasture where we had the privilege of having goats lick, tug and gum your loose ends. Pretty funny. We meandered over to the new goat pens where we were able to "play" with the new goats. They are a hoot. Very friendly and inquisitive. They will allow one to pick them up for photo ops. And they can ham it up. We left with a number of delicious souvenirs, and a rez for the farm dinners they hold in the upstairs dining room. read more

Is it remarkable? No. Is it free and convenient? Yes. Is there much to do beyond wine tasting (a small room that looked vacant), taking a $55 tour, or checking out the gift shop full of stuff like cheese, jams, honey, and goat milk soap? Not really. But is there a donkey? Yes. Yes! And that's why you stop here on your PCH day trip. To see Rosie the donkey and some pygmy goats. Do her a favor and pet her. Not sure if she likes it but at least the flies have to move out of the way for a moment. PS. You're not supposed to bring her an apple to eat, so don't bring her an apple whatever you do. read more

Harley Farms - Weed fiends. - Cheese Shops Near Me - Pescadero, California

**SUPPORT LOCAL SMALL BUSINESSES** As a part of our trip down PCH we wanted to visit the little town of Pescadero and had read about Harley Farms. We took the $55 farm tour. We got to learn about the history of the farm and the dairy. We also went across the street to see the garden, which is where they hold some of their events such as weddings. They've got bees (they make and sell their own honey) and orchards there too. We missed the kid season which is apparently Feb- May. However, we did see the "teenagers." Overall walking around for about 1 hour. If you take the tour you get 10% off at the shop. We stopped by and after talking about goat cheese all morning we needed to try some. It's definitely not cheap though- $14 for a small 4 oz log, $26 for the famed lavender + honey combo. We bought the artichoke bread from Arcangeli and that plus the chives goat cheese together is AMAZING. Highly recommend. As a bonus, this farm is owned and ran by a woman, Dee Harley. I'm all about supporting female owned businesses! read more

This is an adorable, quaint, little goat farm! // T I P S If you want to schedule a tour of the farm (which includes the chance to hold a baby goat), make an appointment online IN ADVANCE as the appointments get booked up fast! Picnic appointments are also available online. This is more of an afternoon snack rather than a full meal and includes scones, butter, cheese, fruit, etc. If you aren't able to schedule a tour or picnic, don't worry because you can still visit and walk around the facility on your own. You can even greet the goats (and baby goats) through their pens. A wash basin with soap is also available in the event that you pet the animals. // S T O R E They also have a small shop that sells both sweet and savory goat cheese options (obviously), fresh jam, honey, various spicy oils (to pair with the cheese), goat milk skincare products, etc. They also sell the famous garlic herb artichoke bread from Arcangeli Grocery! // P R I C E S Be warned - the prices of the products in the store are really high!!!! This isn't somewhere I would visit very often, but this is also the definition of supporting a small, local business (especially during the pandemic) so it's definitely worth a try :) // O V E R A L L Although I think this is a really cute place to visit, it's not necessarily a place you would spend a ton of time at (keeping in mind I was not able to book a tour). In total, I think we spent around 30 min walking around the farm + shop. I do think this would be a great place to bring small children, especially if you are able to make an appointment for an official tour. read more

We've been coming here at least once a year for a baby goat tour since before my son was born (and he is 10 now!). Highly recommend coming between late Feb and early May to see the baby goats. If you just stop by, you can see them in the pen, but if you book a tour you can hold them (and they're so soft and snuggly!). The tour guides have always been so informative, but also friendly and welcoming, and so good with our kids. They also have a small shop with some tasty treats - lots of delicious and fresh goat cheese, but also local honey, jams, syrups, and even skincare products made with goat milk. You can also pick up a souvenir - hats, shirts, bags, even gorgeous wood cutting boards at the moment. They also have Farm Dinners if you're lucky enough to snag a spot (they go quickly), which I was lucky enough to attend this month for the first time. Everything was locally grown and caught, with many of the ingredients of our dinner coming from the farm itself. Chef Matt delivered a truly delicious meal, with everything seasoned and sauced to perfection. My side of the table requested some additional bread for sopping up the extra sauces - it was that good. The farm dinner also started with a tour and history of the farm, with a bit of baby goat cuddling time as well. We'll continue to book our annual tour, stop in for tasty treats when we're coastside, and hopefully attend more farm dinners when we get the opportunity. Harley Farms has been (and will continue to be) a very special place for me and my family. read more

Best goat cheese ever!!!! My boyfriend and I were quickly running out of COVID-safe outings to go on when he came across Harley Farms on Yelp. I love goats and all animals and this farm was much closer than the ones we usually frequent. Here's what we loved about Harley Farms: + spacious farm, easy to socially distance and feel safe + free entry! You can just walk up and visit the animals. They also have tours you can pay to go on. + CHEESE + HONEY Paradise! The first time I visited, I bought a small portion of the goat cheese, pistachio, and apricot cheese combo. It lasted like an hour in my house, everyone was so obsessed. I was kicking myself for not buying more. Our next visit, I made sure to stock up! The honey is also amazing! Worth a stop! Short drive from the Bay in Pescadero. Fun for the kids as well as adults. Best cheese ever, it really puts grocery store cheese to shame. Support local farms! read more

Besides the friendly staff and adorable animals, including the resident black cat and large dogs, and Jimmy the alpaca, the cheese store (gift shop) on site has quite possibly the best vanilla pots de crème I have ever tasted. They're labeled as "milk pot" and contain just four ingredients: cow milk, sugar, vanilla bean, gelatin. They have other flavors, including chocolate, lemon, and olallieberries. The store also sells goat milk soaps and lotions, and non-goat olive oils, crackers, and goat cheeses. The goat milk cheesecake we tried was well made, quality-wise, but it wasn't to my taste, though it did contain lemon, which I usually do like, and the crust seemed to be made with nuts, which was unexpected as there was no label or warning. I wish I had thought to buy more of the vanilla milk pots, as the texture and taste was so creamy and high quality and rich. I would go back for that again alone. read more

Wonderful place to visit to get away from the hustle and bustle of daily life and just zen. I usually visit at least once a year to see the cute goats, sample and purchase their wonderful cheeses (love the dried apricot and sun- dried tomato), truffles, amazing raviolis and indulge in their 4-course Farm/Dairy Dinners in the hayloft. I've been fortunate to have dined twice at Harley Farm's...once for a wedding and another for their Summer Solstice dinners which were both a wonderful experience and treat. I came here with 5 friends which included the dairy/farm tour, sampling of their cheeses with dinner afterwards. Seating is at a communal table (a little snug) in the beautiful hayloft with cute touches of farm-picked flowers, candlelight, appetizer and warmly welcomed by the owner, Dee Harley describing the evening menu. Started off with simple cantaloupe with their goat cheese...I'm not a fan of melons but this was a great pairing and slightly converted me to liking cantaloupe...of course, only with goat cheese! Next dishes: * ENGLISH PEA SALAD with lemon zest, mint, olive oil and ricotta. Simply delicious, refreshing and perfectly blanched. * RICOTTA and CHEVRE RAVIOLI tossed in brown butter, sage with wild mushroom was superb with the creamy, nutty, and earthy...just one of the best! * VENISON with a wine reduction - cooked perfectly rare and not overly seasoned * DESSERT - ricotta with strawberry and balsamic compote finished off the meal nicely! Wonderful experience to dine with friends and make new friends over a great meal in a relaxing and laid-back atmosphere....afterwards you just want to hit the store and buy more cheeses and some ravioli to take home! :) Note: Make it a day by stopping at the various, garden nurseries, Pigeon Point Lighthouse, and grab some garlic/artichoke bread, dipping oils from Arcangeli's :) read more

The staff at Harley Farms are some of the nicest and most down to earth people around. I booked a Farm Tour and loved every minute of it. Our guide, Rita told us about the history of the farm, then we got to meet the mama goats, and finally (drumroll please...) the baby goats. Everyone had an ample amount of time to pet and hold as many baby goats as their heart desired. After having our fill of baby goats we toured the milking station and the dining room in the barn above the gift shop. Our tour ended in the gift shop, where I picked up some goat milk cheesecake (with gluten free macadamia crust!) and lavendar and honey goat cheese. Both were delightful. read more

Cute Goat Farm! We had such a great time at Harley Farms! We didn't do the tour since it was a bit late in the day and pricey for 4 people. Our girls loved seeing the little baby goats and the sweet kitty on the fence. We also saw a donkey and a couple of huge sheep dogs. The dogs were funny just hanging out with the sheep not running around at all. They have a cute pond with picnic tables is you want to sit and have a little lunch or snack right by the farm. Tons of goat cheese, honey, jam and goat milk soap to buy at the gift shop. It's a bit pricey but support your Mom & Pop shops. read more
