Nature Walks with Llamas
Join us and our llamas for a 2-mile nature walk and explore the trails on our farm. We'll walk trails along our pastures and into the woods with your own llama companion. You'll learn the history of the camelid family, llama domestication, and how llamas and alpacas are used today.
We'll also have the opportunity to tour the farm facility, meet the rest of the herd, and learn more about how we prepare and use their fiber.
Other things to note:
* We reserve the right to cancel an experience in the event of bad weather - we will walk in light rain, but will cancel in the event of heavy rain;
* We do not schedule these walks in the middle of summer (July and August) as it gets too hot for the animals, but will add days from time to time over the summer as we check the weather forecast for cooler days.
* Parts of the trails may be wet, muddy, or icy especially in winter, we'll navigate these areas carefully or find alternate routes as necessary.
* guests should wear closed toed shoes and weather-appropriate clothing that is suitable for light hiking
Each child under 10 years old must be accompanied by a parent or guardian and will share a llama on the trails with an adult unless they've had prior experience with handling large livestock.
Please do not ask to bring your pup as saying ‘no’ makes us sad.

Come Cuddle With Animals On A Local Micro-Farm
*New babies born May 8th!*
Looking for a fun outdoor activity for the family? Need to de-stress from the craziness of life? Cuddling with animals offers the opportunity to relax your mind and let go of the stress and anxiety for brief period. Not to mention, it's just FUN!
During your visit, you will have one hour to cuddle and play with the animals on our micro-farm. Being that this is an outdoor experience, we are really not set up to do cuddle sessions during inclement weather. If we are expecting bad weather for your booked hour, I'm happy to work with you on re-scheduling for a nicer day or time.
We currently have lots of Nigerian Dwarf goats of varying ages, an almost 2 year-old miniature Zebu named Molly, a rescue steer named Ferdinand, and two pigs named Charlie and Ellie. We also have numerous chickens, as well as our little Holland Lop bunny Oliver.
** For the health and safety of both our animals and yours, we do not allow outside animals to visit the farm. **
**We do not have a public bathroom on-site, since this is our home. For your convenience, we do offer a Porta-John with hand sanitizer**
*** For those interested, we do offer our pasture raised eggs available for purchase during your visit***
Explore Baltimore County by paddle board
Let's get out and explore a different side of Baltimore!
Many people don't realize that the Inner Harbor is not Baltimore's only scenic waterway. We have dozens of clean creeks just minutes from downtown Baltimore. You will meet at the B'More SUP paddle shack at Sparrows Point Country Club and be given a brief land lesson on how to paddle and where our tour will take us. Once we hit the water you will be guided on a private SUP tour to some of Baltimore's most beautiful hidden waterways where if you get lucky you may get to see wildlife including Chesapeake Bay Otters and Bald Eagles! The entire paddle will take place on flat water- a peaceful, calm waterway called Bear Creek! During the paddle our certified instructors will give you tips and advice on how to paddle effectively and safely.
We will paddle for about an hour and have an option to stop and stretch and take some pictures! Then, we will paddle back to B'More SUP. There are several waterfront bars and restaurants nearby, so if you've worked up an appetite (or thirst!) ask your instructor where to stop for great food and drinks (try an Orange Crush!).
Other things to note:
You'll be paddling on open water so should know how to swim. No prior SUP experience is required but all participants must be competent swimmers. There are showers & change rooms on site- bring a towel!

Paddle On Baltimore's Inner Harbor
There is no better way to see Baltimore City than by standup paddle board! We will paddle where Baltimore’s shipbuilding and steel mills once stood. This fun and informative paddle tour will give you a fresh perspective on our city. We will meet at the Inner Harbor Marina and paddle approximately 3 miles on the harbor.
We will go through a brief introduction to get you familiar with the waterways and with our equipment. We will review all the paddle basics to ensure you know proper paddle technique and are able to paddle safely and responsibly. Once you feel comfortable with the basics on how to paddle we will head out for our adventure: paddling around the Maryland Science Center, National Aquarium, we will get up close to the U.S.S. Constellation (the only surviving ship from the Civil War), Pier 6 Concert Pavillion, the historic seaport of Fells Point and then across the harbor to Domino Sugar.
We highly recommend prior SUP experience for this experience. Although Baltimore's harbor water quality has improved significantly, it is still not water you would want to swim in. If you have not been on a paddle board before, reach out to us and we'd be happy to give you a lesson on a different body of water!

WE HAVE BABIES!!! Come out to Pickle Meadows Farm to snuggle with three adorable goat babies and one you can even bottle feed!!
