Interested in owning or learning about alpacas? Join us for the first of a series of classes. The United Nations has declared 2024 as “the Year of the Camelid.” So, we are going to be offering a series of seminars for folks interested in learning about alpacas and llamas, the camelids we raise here on our ranch.
Seminars start with basics of care, a second one on fiber characteristics, and a third demonstrating what to do with the fiber. These will be hands-on sessions and include handouts and light refreshments. A $10 non-refundable deposit ensures your place at a seminar. (You will receive a coupon for $10 to be used in our Ranch Store, which features a wide variety of camelid related items.
