Farm Tours
Basic Farm Tour ($10/person - 5 person or $50 minimum) - Learn all about alpacas while we venture out into the pastures in a free range setting. Everyone will be provided with a cup of grain and we'll hand feed the alpacas. During this time, you can ask questions and learn all about alpacas. Next, we'll show you how to card alpaca fiber on a drum carder to prepare it for spinning or felting, and you can see all the products we make with our alpaca fiber. The Basic Farm Tour generally lasts 1-2 hours, with 2 hours being the maximum time allowed. We do have a minimum of 6 people (or $60) to schedule a Basic Farm Tour.
Felting Farm Tour (8 years old & up) $20/person - For this tour you get to do all the things included in the Basic Tour, plus you get to learn basic needle felting, and make a 5"x7" needle felted picture with alpaca fiber (on a handmade alpaca felt canvas)! It's lots of fun to "paint with alpaca fiber", and easy to do. The Felting Farm Tour generally lasts 2-4 hours, depending on how "into it" people get. The maximum time allowed is 4 hours. Minimum of 5 people (or $100) to schedule a Felting Farm Tour.
Alpaca Birthday Party or Gathering - $100 (up to 10 people) - Come celebrate your birthday on Sunny Beach with our alpacas, or have a fun get-together with friends! We have a few 10x10 canopies, and we will set up tables and chairs for you. Everyone will be provided with a cup of grain to hand feed the alpacas in a free range setting. During this time, you can ask questions and learn all about alpacas. Next, we'll show you how to card alpaca fiber on a drum carder to prepare it for spinning or felting, and you can see all the products we make with our alpaca fiber (the farm store will be open in the red shelter). If you prefer to not have us set up the farm store, please let us know (we won't be offended as we understand for children's parties most people aren't interested in shopping). You can play on the beach, play games, or do what ever you want around the pond and pasture area. The Alpaca Birthday Party/Gathering Package is for up to 4 hours of party fun. We do not decorate or provide table coverings for the tables. You are more than welcome to arrive 30 minutes ahead of time and decorate yourself. Food and beverages are allowed, we have electrical outlets available if needed. No smoking and no pets. Please have all post party clean up done within an hour after the party finishes. Garbage cans will be provided, please tell all your guests not to litter. No swimming in the pond, but you're allowed to wade in the sand bottom part and get your feet wet. Additonal people can be added for $10/each.
