Date & Time

A hands-on farm visit for all ages. This one is a longer, fuller version of our regular 30-minute farm visit. Come meet our alpacas, chickens, and ducks up close. You’ll get to experience feeding them and learn a little about what makes each of them special.

Then we’ll sit down together to make a nesting ball from our own alpaca fleece. Take it home and hang it in your yard, garden, or porch. The birds (and probably a squirrel or two) will pull the soft fiber out to line their nests.

Each guest also goes home with a bundle of alpaca fleece for the garden. Tuck it around your plants as mulch, use it to line planters, or ring it around seedlings to keep slugs away. You’ll also choose a collector’s card featuring one of our 10 alpacas. Come back to meet the rest of the herd and collect them all!
