What’s better than a charcuterie picnic? A sunset picnic with donkeys. Obviously.
Settle in for a Miniature Donkey Sunset Picnic at Udderly Ridiculous Farm, where your dining companions aren’t a dog trying to steal your cheese, but a herd of curious, lovable donkeys hoping you might have a treat for them too.
Enjoy a handcrafted spread of Ontario-made cheeses, fresh baguette, artisanal meats, snacks, and drinks while the farm winds down for the evening. Our donkeys will wander over to say hello, supervise your picnic, and accept a few snacks of their own (don’t worry, we provide special feed just for them). As you relax and snack, you can also spot our mini Highland cows grazing in the nearby pasture.

Dietary Accommodations:
We can accommodate gluten-free, vegetarian, and most food allergies if notified at least 48 hours in advance. Please add any dietary notes to your reservation.
If you require a vegan substitute, please note that an additional charge will apply to help cover the increased cost of vegan options.
Cheese Selection: This picnic predominantly includes goat cheeses, with occasional sheep or water buffalo cheeses. If you require a different dairy option, non-dairy substitute, or follow a specialized diet (such as Keto or Vegan), please contact us before booking to determine if we can accommodate your request. Additional fees apply.
Bringing Decorations? If you are celebrating a special occasion and wish to bring decorations, please contact us first to ensure they are safe for the donkeys and will not frighten them.
Interacting with Donkeys: Your picnic takes place under a gazebo, but you are welcome to step out and interact with the donkeys. Be sure to bring a hat, sunscreen, and comfortable shoes that can handle a little dirt.
Take-Home Treats: Most guests leave with leftovers and/or farm products to enjoy later!
Age Restriction: This experience is strictly for guests aged 16 and up. Please do not book for children, as we will need to cancel your reservation. Nursing infants are permitted.
Respect the Donkey’s Space: For the well-being of our donkeys, running is not permitted in the enclosure. Please move calmly and respectfully around the animals.
Food & Beverage Policy: Outside food and beverages are not permitted unless there is a specific allergy we cannot accommodate. Guests may not feed the donkeys anything except what is provided, as this is for their health and safety. Alcohol, smoking, and marijuana use are strictly prohibited during the picnic.
Weather Policy: The picnic proceeds in light rain, as the eating area is covered. If heavy rain, strong winds, or thunderstorms occur, your experience will be rescheduled or credited per our policy below.
To create the best experience for both our guests and our animals, we limit the number of participants in each experience. Last-minute cancellations are very difficult to rebook, so we have a fair cancellation policy that we strictly follow:
If we cancel due to weather or other unforeseen circumstances beyond our control, you will receive a full credit (minus the booking system processing fee).
Cancellations made 5 days or more before your experience are eligible for a full refund, credit, or reschedule (minus the processing fee).
Cancellations made 2–4 days before your experience will receive a 50% refund or 50% credit/reschedule (minus the processing fee).
Cancellations within 48 hours of the experience are non-refundable and cannot be credited or rescheduled.
No-shows will not receive a refund, credit, or reschedule.
To help protect our animals, all boots are sanitized in our foam station before entering the farm. Around here we have a simple rule: foam your boots, save an ass.
We give our donkeys plenty of space, time, and respect. That’s why we only run this experience a few times a week with a small number of guests in each session. We’ll show you how to approach the donkeys, interact with them, and earn their trust…because when this is done well, the connection you can build with a donkey is something pretty special.
When they’re not visiting with guests, our donkeys spend their days together in the pasture handling important donkey business: lounging, rolling in the dirt and debating which snacks are the best.
