Shown left is our yearing alpaca Luciana, just after her first shearing!
The herd at Island Alpaca is up for their annual pre-summer grooming, and those in the community are invited to come celebrate along with the alpacas.
You're invited to our special fun and educational event. Get up close to these gentle, curious creatures to learn about the fleece to fiber transition and the benefits of alpaca ownership.
The more than 35+ alpaca and 2 llamas at the farm will be sheared and available for public viewing.
We hope too, a surprise visit from Cicilio and his Ox, "Chilmark" in the early afternoon.
Fun for all ages, and perfect for those thinking about investing in alpaca or for the new breeder!
$8/per person entry. Raffles and light refreshments included!
