About Us

Welcome to the Tule Ranch, a sun-soaked slice of California paradise where the real bosses have paws, feathers, hooves, or snouts, and the humans are just here to serve up great meals and deliver scratches! This family run ranch is a veritable cruise ship of species—it isn’t just about wrangling horses, growing olive trees and collecting chicken eggs; it’s a full-blown, mud-splattered, tail-wagging adventure. Between delivering calves, chasing escape-artist cows (who think fences are just “suggestions”), and negotiating peace treaties between Walter the pig and the Alpacas, life here is anything but boring.

Dedicated to protecting nature and giving all creatures—domestic and wild—a place to call home, we have somehow mastered the fine art of balancing ranch chaos with a deep love for the land.  Our goal is to restore this little slice of planet earth—now our family ranch and the center of our world—with all the diverse plants, wildlife, birds and insects that will allow it to grow into a thriving reserve that impacts all the surrounding land. Alongside its rich biodiversity we explore ways to cultivate and farm plants and animals, in a considered balance. We believe in encouraging all the advantages that diversity offers..

 

So whether it’s a cow photobombing family pictures or Maple the chicken asking for lunch, one thing’s for sure—there’s never a dull moment at Tule Ranch and we welcome you to join us for fun! 🐴🐷🐶🐔🌿

What our clients say

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "10/10, Would Get Judged by a Goat Again"

I signed up for a casual, scenic goat hike—what I got was a fluffy, four-legged comedy show featuring the most affectionate trail guides I’ve ever met. Within five minutes, one goat tried to eat my shoelaces, another stared deep into my soul and saw all my secrets, and a third persuaded me to give her my granola bar. (I lost that battle. No regrets.)

The views? Stunning. The air? Perfect. My dignity? Left somewhere back on the trail when a tiny goat named Sprinkles became my new BFF. Honestly, best hike of my life. Highly recommend if you enjoy nature, laughter, and being mildly harassed by adorable, snack-obsessed creatures. Would follow these hooved menaces into the mountains again in a heartbeat.
