No parking lot is no problem, plenty of parking along the small pavement road. The only thing you got to watch for is that right before reaching into the farm destination, there is a tight bottleneck where the road gets a bit tight. But it is the only exit and entrance, used by two opposing traffic. So it can get kind of tight and one car has to steer off the road just a bit to make room so both car can pass along. For one hour tour, there was surprisingly a lot! First segment is interacting with a small herd of Alpacas in the outer farm. The second half is where you head into the inner portion of the farms where you'll be given food to feed the alpacas. There is a llama as well with the herd during the second half of the tour. Then afterwards, you get to go to the little shop on second floor of the farmhouse, where a cat name Charlie could be seen.

I went to visit the alpacas for my birthday on Valentine's Day, and I can honestly say it was one…read moreof the best experiences ever. From the moment we arrived, everything felt so peaceful and welcoming. Getting to see the alpacas up close, feed them, and just spend time around them was absolutely magical. They are the sweetest, most gentle little fluff balls I literally fell in love. Each one has its own personality, and being able to interact with them made the whole experience feel so special and personal. It was such a unique way to celebrate my birthday, and it made Valentine's Day even more memorable. I truly had the best time and left with the biggest smile on my face. They completely stole my heart... so now I guess I'll just have to go back and get it! I already can't wait to visit again. If you're thinking about going do it. You won't regret it!

I truly enjoyed our group tour with Dr La Puma, Kandi, and Rocky and I'm not someone who spends a…read morelot of time on farms. (Reconsidering this now, though!) Whether you know much ab regenerative farming or are a complete novice like me, I highly recommend this tour if you are curious about food, plants & farming, or simply want to spend a few beautiful hours outdoors doing something a little different. I learned a lot about everything I just listed and also Santa Barbara's terrain, growing techniques, and even recipes I want to give a go. The literal hands-on approach Dr. La Puma uses kept our whole group engaged and coming up with questions, all of which Dr. La Puma had plenty of insight to share. I'm left inspired to return, learn more, point friends to La Puma Farm, and be more curious about my food (where it comes from, its medicinal benefits, where and when it grows, etc.) Photos by Kandi Amelon.

There is plenty of parking in the attached dirt lot. Idk why the photos uploaded out of order. Annoying but you get the idea.

Walking with the Alpacas and Llamas is an experience we will never forget. They were just chilling all around us and even followed us on our walk to the chicken coop. The owner is so nice and was so patient with the kids. He took his time, was engaging, and had some great stories. I would 100% recommend to any family looking to have a close up experience. The kids got to feed the goats, and walk into a chicken coop. It ended up being the highlight of our entire weekend.

Jessi coordinated with us for the months leading up to the event, and her planning and communication were fantastic every step of the way. On the day of the event, Kelly handled coordination and the bar, which made it easy for us to sit back and relax. Beyond the great service, the day itself was a blast. Our employees had an amazing time! Riding the tractor was a hit, visiting with the Scottish Highland Mini Bull was so much fun, and our animal encounter with the goat was a favorite too. The lunch was great -- the sandwiches were served on homemade bread that was really tasty. The setting was perfect, with ample shade, a nice breeze, and comfortable temperatures. If you're looking for a venue for a company party or special event, I can't recommend Vega Vineyard & Farm highly enough. Huge thanks to Jessi, Kelly, and the whole team for making our celebration so memorable!
