Say Cheese
Harley Farms, home to award-winning goat cheese, is starting up their farm tours on February 13 where visitors can
receive a "behind the scenes" look at the inner workings of this nine-acre goat dairy farm. The two-hour tour
includes meeting the friendly goats, milking a goat, learning how to make goat cheese and a cheese tasting upstairs
in a refurbished hayloft. Spring is the perfect time to visit, as it's kidding season on the farm, and visitors
might even have the privilege of watching the birth of a baby goat. The farm is home to 220 American Alpine goats
that produce more than 500 kids each spring. Tours are held on Saturdays and Sundays and are available by reservation
only. Tours are $20 per adult; $10 for children ages 6-12; and free for kids ages five and under.
Harley Farms is also hosting special farm dinners once a month on January 16, February 13, March 6 and April 17.
These hands-on events offer an in-depth tour of the farm where participants milk the goats and learn about traditional
cheese making, followed by a decadent five-course seasonal meal in the farm's rustically charming hayloft. The evening
menu will be sourced locally and will be sure to include Harley Farms' incredible goat cheese. Limited to 20 guests;
held from 4 - 8 p.m.; $150 per person. 205 North Street, Pescadero. For more information call (650) 879-0480 or visit

Whale Watching
The annual migration of the gray whale is currently underway, and Half Moon Bay is the perfect spot for witnessing
the journey of these spectacular creatures. Beginning in early December through the end of March, approximately
15,000 gray whales swim south from the icy waters of the Arctic to mate and nurse their young in the warm, shallow
lagoons along Magdalena Bay in Baja, California. For those who like to plan ahead, March through early
April is a great time to spot humpback whales as they begin moving closer to shore.
