Duration

1.5 Hours

Please note: While our community tours are open to all ages, private tours are strongly recommended for families with young children to enable us to better adjust the pacing and content of the tour for them.

No one will be turned away due to lack of funds. If the suggested donation of $25/adult and $15/child is not in your budget, please contact us by email at info@charliesacres.org or by text message at 707-204-0020. We will reply to your message with a discount code you can use to waive the cost. Please be sure to still reserve your spots so that we know to expect you and to ensure we don't go over group capacity.

What exactly is a sanctuary?

As a non-profit farm animal sanctuary, our priority is the physical and emotional well being of the rescued animals who call Charlie's Acres home. Our animal residents always have a choice as to whether or not they want to interact with visitors and will reside at the sanctuary for the rest of their lives. In contrast, the goal of a petting zoo is profit and entertainment, meaning that animals may be forced to be handled regardless of what they want and are often discarded when they are no longer profitable. By sharing the stories of our rescued residents, they are able to serve as animal ambassadors to help visitors learn more about the challenges animals like them face in our world and see these often misunderstood beings in a new light.

Charlie's Acres is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit. All donations and registration costs are tax deductible.

What should I expect?

We are a working farm animal sanctuary, so please expect to do some walking, potentially get dirty, and be exposed to the natural weather elements (rain, heat, wind). Also expect to meet some amazing farm animals and hear their incredible stories. Tours last between 75 and 90 minutes and involve about 1/2 mile of walking.

What should I wear?

If you would like to go into the animal pastures, please wear closed toe shoes. Boots are preferable, but any closed toe shoe will do. If you are wearing clothing that we do not think is safe to be with the animals, we may ask you to wait outside the pastures.

Tours of Charlie's Acres are offered rain or shine. We have barns and shelters along the tour route for cover as needed. Please dress appropriately for the weather.

What should I bring?

Please bring a water bottle in the summer months as it gets hot! We have filtered water on site, so you can refill it as needed. We have limited shade and coverings, so an umbrella and/or hat could be useful as well. Please do NOT bring any food or really yummy smelling items on your body or in your purse during the tour as our animals love to eat! Feel free to bring your camera and take pictures. Tag us on Facebook and Instagram!

Goodbye Winter, Hello Spring! Join us on the first weekend of Spring by visiting our Green Witch & Cottagecore Market in downtown Napa, CA.

Goodbye Winter, Hello Spring! Join us on the first weekend of Spring Equinox by visiting our Green Witch & Cottagecore Market in downtown Napa, California.

Our artisans will create nature-inspired products that focus on the magic of herbs, essential oils, flora, and even fauna. Purchase artisan jewelry, home decor, altar supplies, self-care products, witch crafts, art prints & stickers, divination tools, cleansing supplies, and more- both pastoral and dark cottagecore.

Find everything you need to decorate your Ostara altar and make new intentions for Spring.

The beginning of each season is a great time to learn new magic. Dedicate the season to learn new divination practices such as tarot, pendulums, and runes. Learn new spells with some of our handmade kits, or collect the ingredients from our apothecary. Collect new crystals for energy work, or indulge in handmade bath and body products. There will be lots of samples for you to try! We're positive you'll go home with so many witchy goodies.

We are also planning to have tarot readers, astrology, henna, sound healing, psychic readers, Reiki, and more. Set aside a few hours with your friends to do some shopping at the Whimsy Market, visit shops in downtown Napa, and drink delicious adult beverages at Napa Yard. The Yard also has great food, lots of seating for family and friends, a children’s playground, an adults-only area with fire pits, and so much more.

Additional Info.:

Parking is free. Napa Yard has a large parking lot in front, but it gets crowded fast. There is additional parking throughout downtown Napa.

This is a family-friendly event.

This is a rain-or-shine event. Be prepared to bring an umbrella.

Friendly dogs on leashes are allowed in outdoor areas only.

All ages are welcome. Please keep your children with you at all times, and do not allow them to grab products off of the vendor tables or stick their fingers in candles.

Drink responsibly. We would like everyone to arrive home safely after the market, so drink responsibly.

Follow us on Instagram or Facebook at @thewhimsymarket for more events, product posts, and event updates. We do have a dedicated event on Facebook where you can find products that will be offered (one to two weeks prior to the event).

You only need tickets for the hour you plan to arrive. Guests are allowed to stay as long as they want, or until the market ends at 6 p.m.

Hope to see you between 1-6 p.m. on March 21st.

An unforgettable experience!

Visit our sanctuary to meet our animal residents and hear their incredible rescue stories.

Duration

1.5 Hours

Please note: While our community tours are open to all ages, private tours are strongly recommended for families with young children to enable us to better adjust the pacing and content of the tour for them.

No one will be turned away due to lack of funds. If the suggested donation of $25/adult and $15/child is not in your budget, please contact us by email at info@charliesacres.org or by text message at 707-204-0020. We will reply to your message with a discount code you can use to waive the cost. Please be sure to still reserve your spots so that we know to expect you and to ensure we don't go over group capacity.

What exactly is a sanctuary?

As a non-profit farm animal sanctuary, our priority is the physical and emotional well being of the rescued animals who call Charlie's Acres home. Our animal residents always have a choice as to whether or not they want to interact with visitors and will reside at the sanctuary for the rest of their lives. In contrast, the goal of a petting zoo is profit and entertainment, meaning that animals may be forced to be handled regardless of what they want and are often discarded when they are no longer profitable. By sharing the stories of our rescued residents, they are able to serve as animal ambassadors to help visitors learn more about the challenges animals like them face in our world and see these often misunderstood beings in a new light.

Charlie's Acres is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit. All donations and registration costs are tax deductible.

What should I expect?

We are a working farm animal sanctuary, so please expect to do some walking, potentially get dirty, and be exposed to the natural weather elements (rain, heat, wind). Also expect to meet some amazing farm animals and hear their incredible stories. Tours last between 75 and 90 minutes and involve about 1/2 mile of walking.

What should I wear?

If you would like to go into the animal pastures, please wear closed toe shoes. Boots are preferable, but any closed toe shoe will do. If you are wearing clothing that we do not think is safe to be with the animals, we may ask you to wait outside the pastures.

Tours of Charlie's Acres are offered rain or shine. We have barns and shelters along the tour route for cover as needed. Please dress appropriately for the weather.

What should I bring?

Please bring a water bottle in the summer months as it gets hot! We have filtered water on site, so you can refill it as needed. We have limited shade and coverings, so an umbrella and/or hat could be useful as well. Please do NOT bring any food or really yummy smelling items on your body or in your purse during the tour as our animals love to eat! Feel free to bring your camera and take pictures. Tag us on Facebook and Instagram!

Petit Mouse Take a Nap, Signing + Meet & Greet

Hey Napa 📚🐛s, mark your calendars!

Join us at @napabookmine inside Oxbow Public Market on March 22 for a special book signing with Author Karin Argoud.

She’ll be signing copies of Petit Mouse Takes a Nap, a sweet story perfect for little readers (and the grown-ups who love bedtime books just as much).

Even better? For every book sold, Karen donates 5% of the net profits to the Save the Children fund. A new book for your shelf and a little good in the world? That’s a win.

Bring the kiddos, wander the Market, and make an afternoon of it. 💛

Looking for something exciting, educational, and affordable to do with your kids in Napa? You’ve found it! Perfect for kids from 5-12!

The CIA at Copia’s Flavors of Film: Family Series is BACK and we're exploring different cultures from around the world through monthly events—where films meet food, and fun meets flavor. Each event is packed with hands-on food-centric activities, interactive scavenger adventures, and of course, a movie screening the whole family will love.

Perfect for families with curious, creative, and adventurous kids—this is the kind of afternoon that turns into a lifelong memory.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Each month’s themed event includes:

• Movie Magic - Enjoy a kid-approved film in our stunning Ecolab Theatre, complete with complimentary popcorn and water. Grown-ups can purchase and sip wine by the glass while relaxing in comfort.

• Scavenger Hunts in the Museum or Culinary Gardens - Adventure awaits after the movie! Families explore our one-of-a-kind Chuck Williams Culinary Museum or outdoor culinary gardens with themed scavenger hunts that are fun and sneakily educational (yes, even parents can learn something new!).

• Interactive, Movie-Inspired Food Activities - Kids roll up their sleeves and dive into a hands-on food activity inspired by the day’s movie—think edible crafts, and colorful, wholesome treats they can take home to enjoy.

Don’t Miss Napa Valley’s Most Delicious Family Tradition

Tickets are limited and events often sell out—reserve your spot early and treat your family to a Sunday they’ll be talking about for months to come.

Visit our sanctuary to meet our animal residents and hear their incredible rescue stories.

Duration

1.5 Hours

Please note: While our community tours are open to all ages, private tours are strongly recommended for families with young children to enable us to better adjust the pacing and content of the tour for them.

No one will be turned away due to lack of funds. If the suggested donation of $25/adult and $15/child is not in your budget, please contact us by email at info@charliesacres.org or by text message at 707-204-0020. We will reply to your message with a discount code you can use to waive the cost. Please be sure to still reserve your spots so that we know to expect you and to ensure we don't go over group capacity.

What exactly is a sanctuary?

As a non-profit farm animal sanctuary, our priority is the physical and emotional well being of the rescued animals who call Charlie's Acres home. Our animal residents always have a choice as to whether or not they want to interact with visitors and will reside at the sanctuary for the rest of their lives. In contrast, the goal of a petting zoo is profit and entertainment, meaning that animals may be forced to be handled regardless of what they want and are often discarded when they are no longer profitable. By sharing the stories of our rescued residents, they are able to serve as animal ambassadors to help visitors learn more about the challenges animals like them face in our world and see these often misunderstood beings in a new light.

Charlie's Acres is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit. All donations and registration costs are tax deductible.

What should I expect?

We are a working farm animal sanctuary, so please expect to do some walking, potentially get dirty, and be exposed to the natural weather elements (rain, heat, wind). Also expect to meet some amazing farm animals and hear their incredible stories. Tours last between 75 and 90 minutes and involve about 1/2 mile of walking.

What should I wear?

If you would like to go into the animal pastures, please wear closed toe shoes. Boots are preferable, but any closed toe shoe will do. If you are wearing clothing that we do not think is safe to be with the animals, we may ask you to wait outside the pastures.

Tours of Charlie's Acres are offered rain or shine. We have barns and shelters along the tour route for cover as needed. Please dress appropriately for the weather.

What should I bring?

Please bring a water bottle in the summer months as it gets hot! We have filtered water on site, so you can refill it as needed. We have limited shade and coverings, so an umbrella and/or hat could be useful as well. Please do NOT bring any food or really yummy smelling items on your body or in your purse during the tour as our animals love to eat! Feel free to bring your camera and take pictures. Tag us on Facebook and Instagram!

Join us on the mountain in celebration of Spring with an Enchanted Egg Hunt. Craft a gathering bag, enjoy a delicious brunch, hunt for eggs!

No one will be turned away due to lack of funds.

What exactly is a sanctuary?

As a non-profit farm animal sanctuary, our priority is the physical and emotional well being of the rescued animals who call Charlie's Acres home. Our animal residents always have a choice as to whether or not they want to interact with visitors and will reside at the sanctuary for the rest of their lives. In contrast, the goal of a petting zoo is profit and entertainment, meaning that animals may be forced to be handled regardless of what they want and are often discarded when they are no longer profitable. By sharing the stories of our rescued residents, they are able to serve as animal ambassadors to help visitors learn more about the challenges animals like them face in our world and see these often misunderstood beings in a new light.

Charlie's Acres is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit. All donations and registration costs are tax deductible.

What should I expect?

We are a working farm animal sanctuary, so please expect to do some walking, potentially get dirty, and be exposed to the natural weather elements (rain, heat, wind). Also expect to meet some amazing farm animals and hear their incredible stories. Tours last between 75 and 90 minutes and involve about 1/2 mile of walking.

What should I wear?

If you would like to go into the animal pastures, please wear closed toe shoes. Boots are preferable, but any closed toe shoe will do. If you are wearing clothing that we do not think is safe to be with the animals, we may ask you to wait outside the pastures.

Tours of Charlie's Acres are offered rain or shine. We have barns and shelters along the tour route for cover as needed. Please dress appropriately for the weather.

What should I bring?

Please bring a water bottle in the summer months as it gets hot! We have filtered water on site, so you can refill it as needed. We have limited shade and coverings, so an umbrella and/or hat could be useful as well. Please do NOT bring any food or really yummy smelling items on your body or in your purse during the tour as our animals love to eat! Feel free to bring your camera and take pictures. Tag us on Facebook and Instagram!
