Learn how to milk a cow!
The best part? The overnight camping experience. You and your family get to camp right alongside out cows! Our cows graze openly on pasture 365 days/year, moving frequently from pasture to pasture to keep the pastures fresh and actively regenerating. Witness this unique movement first-hand and experience the joy of watching our precious cows and their unique personalities while you camp right alongside them!

FARM TOUR + MEET OUR FAMILY

Another amazing aspect of Camping with the Cows is the exclusive farm tour provided. Our family will take you on a trailer ride across our beautiful 450 acre farm and show you our milkbarn. Ask our family your questions! It’s one of these moments you simply cannot miss. It will bring you joy. Don’t think twice! Get your tickets and come. See first-hand what we do and how we do it and what makes RAW FARM special.
BONFIRES + STARGAZING
One of the most magical moments of Camping with the Cows is the camping experience itself. As it gets close to dusk, our team will come around to each campsite and help you light a bonfire. This is the time where you get to reflect on your day, spend quality time with your group or family, and enjoy the calming, delightful sounds of the farm. Soak in the West Coast California sunset, roast delicious s’mores, gaze at the stars, and enjoy the night.
THE FOLLOWING MORNING | may 1st, 2022
Wake up the next morning to the crisp air, fresh pasture aroma, and lovely sounds of nature. Watch the sunrise and head over to our coffee & pour over station and enjoy a cup of coffee with RAW HEAVY CREAM. Does it get any more dreamy than this? 😍 The morning activities include games and relaxing until it’s time to pack up your campsite and head on home until next year.
CHECKLIST (WHAT TO BRING):
Extra snacks and beverages: Dinner and breakfast the following morning will be provided. A charcuterie cup with raw cheese and crackers will be provided during the raw cheese tasting on April 30th. Hydration stations with water will be available throughout the event. Bring your reusable bottle and cups. We are trying to reduce waste and cups used (especially). The less trash produced at the event the better. Feel free to bring any additional snacks, meals, or beverages your group desires.
Bring your campsite set up: WE SEE IT ALL. We have even seen campers have ground-level tarps with tents to sleep under the stars. You can absolutely come with any campsite set up. RVs of all sizes are certainly welcome. We have seen it all. Vans, tents, mega and mini RVs, and event a fancy outdoor hammock set up. Bring snacks, beverages, breakfast, lunch, and your own camping shade or arrangement. It is boondock-style camping, so come prepared to have all supportive generators (you will be placed on the loud side if you plan on running your generator at night).
Plugs and cords: We have standard power stations ready for anyone that needs a quick charge for a device or blow up their mattress. We ask that you bring your own plugs and cords and take them with you when you are done. It is pretty hilarious seeing everyone blowing up their mattresses upon arrival and the teenagers all powering up their devices right at sundown. No matter what your need is, we have got your back! However, we do not have Tesla charging stations, but in an absolute emergency for an electric car, we can help you with our generator outlet.
Please bring a campfire chair: We do have plenty of lounge seating setups with hay bales for fun during the actives. At night, after all of the daytime fun, everyone enjoys the campfires we set up (about 50 bonfires are provided) and you will want your most comfortable chair for stargazing under the stars.
Appropriate clothing: : We suggest wearing pants and sneakers with a hat during the day to protect from the sun and a hoodie for nighttime to cuddle around the camp bonfires. Our farm is located in the Central Valley of California. Our days can be perfectly warm during the day, but our nights are perfectly chilly. Please bring layers to maintain your personal comfortable temperature.
