Fifth Annual Goat Festival

Who can resist these cute little kids?

You’re sure to melt when they make their usual appearance at the 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. April 20 Goat Fest at the Ferry Building Marketplace in San Francisco.

The goats are from famed Redwood Hill Farm in Sebastopol, which celebrates 45 years in business in 2013.

In addition to getting up close and personal with the goats at the fest, co-hosted by the Center for Urban Education about Sustainable Agriculture, you’ll get a chance to see cooking demos, sample goat milk products, and talk to producers.

All events will take place in the CUESA classroom in front of the Ferry Building.
