We’re sorry about your socks… but we’re not sorry about the core memories you’ll make with our adorable animals. Whether it’s a goat falling asleep in your arms, an alpaca strutting its stuff, or a mini Highland cow giving you a sloppy kiss you’ll never want to wash off your face, this is where ridiculous meets unforgettable.
But it’s more than just laughs — it’s about leaving stress behind, feeling like a kid again, learning and celebrating life with animals that are happy, healthy, and ready to connect.
So, what do you say? Ready for a truly unique adventure—and to wonder where your socks went?
“Can we take them home?” It’s the question we hear every day. While the animals stay here, the memories, laughs, and stories are all yours to take with you — no leash required.

Hi, I’m Cheryl, and beside me are my husband Greg and our friendly greeter, farm dog Aspen. Welcome to Udderly Ridiculous Farm Life, our third-generation family farm about 30m from Kitchener-Waterloo. What began with goat-milk ice cream quickly grew when customers asked us to offer Goat Yoga. I thought, “Who’d want goats chewing on their Lululemon pants?” Fast forward to today, and we’ve:
We’re not a petting farm; our animals come first! From spa-worthy care to social circles, we make sure they’re living their best lives. We even give them daily breakdowns of the stock market and book recommendations. Because they’re happy and healthy, they’re ready to connect with you and make your experience truly one of a kind.
Hover over the beautiful faces below to see how we keep them happy and healthy!

We’re not a petting farm; our animals come first. From spa-worthy care to social circles, we make sure they’re living their best lives. We even give them daily breakdowns of the stock market and book recommendations (how about that, huh?). Because they’re happy and healthy, they’re ready to connect with you and make your experience truly one of a kind.
These are the 8 ways we keep them happy and healthy!
We limit the number of experiences and number of people per experience. Our animals have it better than the average corporate girlie working a 9-5. Because of this, it’s smart to book an experience early in advance before spots fill up.
We ask guests to sanitize their shoes with our sanitary foot mat before entering the farm. We don’t want two years of spit and chewing gum bacteria staying on the farm (yuck). It’s a biohazard thing!
We provide a detailed safety and handling briefing to make sure you and the animals are safe at all times. If you start doing jumping jacks next to the alpacas, they will run from you like their life depends on it.
Our experiences are designed to be safe and enriching for the animals. For example, in our mini Highland cow experience, you literally brush our cows, and they love it so much they’ll tilt their head up like they’re at a spa.
We are not a petting farm/zoo. We do not sell feed and do not provide unrestricted access to the pastures. That means you can only interact with them during an experience—think exclusive VIP meet-and-greets, but for animals.
We keep the animals together in their own pastures to promote their social wellbeing. You’ll see them living their best lives—because even animals need their squad.
We provide excellent veterinary care and checkups regularly. These animals are treated better than most of us treat ourselves—do you have a nutritionist and a personal vet on call?
We prioritize natural behaviours and enrichment for our animals. From climbing structures for goats to grazing pastures for alpacas, we ensure they have opportunities to play, explore, and thrive. Basically, it’s a luxury resort with room service, but for animals.
Stay in our fully equipped luxury RV, facing heavenly sunsets and the animal pastures! Say goodbye to annoying neighbours and sly raccoons, and imagine waking up to goats right outside your doorstep in the quiet countryside (with the occasional MOO and cluck-cluck). We’re in the middle of nowhere and the middle of everywhere, so spend your days exploring the area and finish it off with a cozy campfire and a comfortable sleep! Oh, and did we mention you get 10% off all experiences just for staying? It’s like bribing you to have an even better time.

After your experience, take home a souvenir—whether it’s a conversation starter or a treat for your belly. We’ve stocked items from over 100 local producers, and you know it’s good because we’re ridiculously picky about what we offer! It’s a win-win-win: you support local businesses, support us, and take something special home with you. We love a triple win!
Are you like 65% of lactose intolerant folks? No problem. Our award-winning goat milk ice cream is the perfect treat for a smooth car ride home — no awkward pit stops or windows-down moments required. Packed with more nutrients than regular ice cream and featuring rich, unique flavours like Vanilla Lavender and Wine & Dark Chocolate, it’s all made with real, locally sourced ingredients. You’re on a farm with goats… of course, you need to try goat milk ice cream!
goats donated
For every tub of Udderly Ridiculous goat milk ice cream you enjoy, we donate a portion of the profit to provide goats to rural communities in need through our Gift a Goat™ program, in partnership with World Vision Canada.

Nope! The words “petting farm” give us the ick! We’re much more ethical and treat our animals better, which means they’re happy, healthy, and ready to connect with you!
Nope! Although we’re sure your dog is really cute and great, our animals may get scared by their presence (unless you have a pet rock or something, then they’ll probably be okay)! Also, our guard llama will see it as a stranger and do his job… and he’s really dang good at his job!
Yup! However, please read the experience descriptions carefully, as some of our activities have age restrictions for the safety and comfort of our animals and other guests. We recommend checking these details before booking to ensure the experience is the perfect fit for your family — because while goats love kids, they don’t do babysitting!
Nope! You can always stop by the farm market store or stroll our walkable paths to see the animals during our open hours. But if you’re planning on doing an experience without booking it in advance, there’s a chance it may already be full! So we definitely recommend to book an experience in advance… unless you enjoy the thrill of last-minute plans, then good luck and buy yourself an ice-cream while you’re here!
Ehh, kinda? We’re not officially wheelchair certified because we don’t have specific features like ramps or electric doors, but plenty of visitors with wheelchairs have successfully navigated the farm. Our spaces are wide enough to accommodate, and our staff is always happy to assist you.
Yup! Parking is located next to the farm market store, and there are handicap spots closer to the entrance. Um, not sure what else you need to know about our parking… OH, read the signs and please don’t drive through the farm. Thank you!
Here you go my friend! You’ll see this cancellation policy on every experience page:
Please note in order to create the best experience for our guests and our animals we have limited numbers in each experience. It is very difficult to rebook a last-minute cancellation and so we have instituted a fair cancellation policy that we need to adhere to:
THE SHOW GOES ON! Most of our experiences can continue despite bad weather. For example, Goat Recess is moved inside the barn, there’s a large tent for Goat Yoga, and you’ll eat under gazebos during Alpaca Lunch and Sunset Picnics. For other experiences, we recommend bringing protective clothing like a raincoat or poncho if rain is in the forecast. If you’re prone to mosquito bites, we also suggest bringing some bug spray.
If the weather is dangerously terrible, then we will offer credit and refunds.
Spring/summer/fall | May – September:
Winter | October to April:
Midweek only by appointment or chance (call us)
We recommend arriving 10 minutes before your experience begins to check in, sign the waiver if you haven’t already, wash your hands, and mentally prepare to feel cute aggression. We typically start right on time so you can get the most out of your experience! If you arrive earlier than 10 minutes, feel free to browse the farm market store or stroll the walkable paths to see the animals — just be sure to ask a staff member about the paths.
Yup! There is one washroom inside the farm market store. You’ll notice there are two doors inside the washroom: one that leads from the store to the washroom, and one that leads from the washroom to the goat barn. Please lock both doors when you’re inside—otherwise, someone might walk in, and we’re pretty sure you wouldn’t want that. Oh, and definitely don’t open the door to the goat barn, unless you want goats jumping on your lap while you’re on the toilet. Sounds fun, but it’s not (we promise), and getting them back into the barn is a whole operation!
Oh, you’ve made it to the bottom of the page?
We didn’t anticipate anyone coming down here!
Hmm, we’ve already placed Muriel’s travel photos here,
