President's Day Weekend
Friday, February 17th:
This fun and educational program will provide an introduction to the alpaca, covering topics such as alpaca vital statistics, types and personalities of alpacas, care and diet of alpacas, and alpaca fiber! A fiber craft will also be included and, of course, interaction with the alpacas! Our classroom and Farm Store are located in our barn. Size of group is limited to 12 participants and a maximum of 2 accompanying adults per each registered child. Ticket options include:
Child/Adult Participant Ticket: (includes fiber craft): $16
Accompanying Adult Ticket (for adults accompanying a child/craft not included): $8
Please note:
Space is limited and alpacas are gentle animals that can easily be overwhelmed, so we must limit accompanying adult attendance to two adults per registered child. In an effort to provide a focused learning environment, it is kindly requested that only children registered for the program are in attendance. Children must be at least 6 years of age.
Adults who wish to participate in the class (as opposed to simply accompanying a child) may purchase a $16 participant ticket, which includes the creation of the fiber craft, as well.
