Moo & You: Hugs With Hope

Moo & You: Highland Hugs with Hope – Reserve your tickets now!

Fun for the Whole Family!

Come spend some one-on-one time with Hope, our sweet mini Highland cow, during this fun barnyard experience at Von Thun Farms in Washington, NJ!

Highland cows are known for their gentle nature, long shaggy coats, and love of attention and Hope is no exception. She lives for chin scratches, quiet brushes, and cozy cuddles. During your visit, you’ll get to groom her, take some adorable photos, offer her some treats, and soak up some slow, peaceful farm time.

You’ll have the chance to meet, hug, cuddle, groom, and snap photos with Hope – and even feed her a treat or two. A few of her sheep and goat friends will be there to join in the fun too!

Each visit is a 30-minute private experience, and your time begins promptly at the ticketed start time. Tickets must be purchased online in advance, and space is limited to 6 guests per group/time slot.

*NEW* Flex CSA Program

Fresh, Local, & Flexible – Introducing Our New Flex CSA Program!

With our Traditional CSA, members pick up a weekly share of farm-fresh produce on a set day. But with our new Flex CSA, you get complete control over when you pick up & what produce (or beef!) you get!

We’re excited to introduce our Flex CSA Program – designed for busy folks with an inconsistent schedule!

While Traditional CSA members pick up a weekly share of farm-fresh produce on a set day, Flex CSA members get complete control over when they pick up & what produce (or beef!) they get!

**And, if you’re wondering, YES!! Members of our Traditional CSA Program always receive more value than what they’ve paid!

Flex CSA is an easy way to support local farming, enjoy peak-season produce and meats, and stock up on the foods you love at your own pace. No set schedules, no missed pick-ups— just farm-fresh food on your terms!

✅ Sign up now 

✅ Use your ’25 CSA funds anytime from the start of the program in early June through October 31, 2025
