SHEARING DAYS - May/June 2010

We invite you to join us on our shearing weekends. Weather will determine when we will be shearing our alpacas as they can only be sheared if they are completely dry.

If you are interested in stopping by to watch the fiber come off our alpacas or better yet to volunteer to help us in this annual task, please contact us so we can add you to the list of folks to contact when we know what days we will be shearing.

Thanks to everyone who visited our farm in 2010! We had over 1,500 visitors thanks to the Tulip Festival and Festival of Family Farms and all the farm visitors throughout the year who stopped by to see the alpacas and visit our farm store. We really enjoyed meeting everyone and a big thanks to everyone who purchased our handspun alpaca yarns from our studio and other alpaca products.

We have some awesome alpaca packages for sale, including pregnant females. Contact Lesa for details! We offer financing and will match any price from other farms.

We will be focusing on downsizing our herd in 2010 as we prepare for our big move to our Idaho ranch in summer 2011 and are motivated to make some awesome offers - take a look at the quality we have to offer and make us an offer! Alpacas For Sale
