*Howe Ranch is not open to the public outside scheduled activities. Private street access for registered guests only. Unauthorized entry is monitored and enforced in our rural neighborhood.
Because our team is fully dedicated to caring for the animals and hosting scheduled guests, questions about exceptions/about experiences that are not available/about information already shared in our FAQs will not receive a response.
All farm visits are scheduled at least 24 hours in advance due to strict liability regulations (we must staff a safety trained facilitator), and cannot be refunded or changed to a new date once booked because your visit will be blocked for you and resources committed.
