South Mountain Dairy Tours

The Farm is open for Sunday Tours!

Spring Tours for 2010 ~ $5 per car
South Mountain Dairy is a working farm, and during the milking season we only offer tours on a limited basis. We are a small operation, usually working from 5:00am to 9:00pm every day. Everyone is busy mucking barns, milking goats, and making cheese.

That is why we set aside a special time each spring to open the farm, and invite you to come meet the girls and tour the dairy facility. You can pet the girls and their babies. You will receive a small bottle of milk to feed a baby goat. We encourage you to spend time walking with the big girls, and getting to know those who provide the milk for our cheeses and yogurts!

The following dates will be open for you to come visit:

Sunday April 4th 1:00 - 4:00 pm
Sunday April 11th 1:00 - 4:00 pm
Sunday April 18th 1:00 - 4:00 pm
Sunday April 25th 1:00 - 4:00 pm

The farm is located North of I40, between Sandia Park and Cedar Grove. For your convenience, the link on the right hand side of this page provides you with directions, and maps to the farm from both Albuquerque, and Santa Fe.

Donna, Marge and our employees will be on site to introduce you to the girls, explain how cheese is made, and show you the milking parlour. Cheese, Yogurt and Milk will be available to purchase on the farm.

Dress Appropriately!
South Mountain Dairy is at an elevation of 7200 feet. The temperature is generally 10 degrees cooler than Albuquerque, and the wind is often blowing. We suggest you bring a jacket and wear sunscreen.

NO SANDALS or FLIP FLOPS!
Please keep in mind that this is a working farm and dress accordingly - wear clothes and tennis shoes that you can get a little dirty.

Do NOT wear Sandals!!!
