Alpaca Shearing Day - May 7th - 7AM - 4PM

The 2015 crew!

The 2015 crew!

We are shearing approximately 68 alpacas. We employ the Noodling method and work with a professional shearer Brent Winslow utilizing the two stage shearing method as well. This is the time to experience husbandry in one day with nail trimming, shearing, CD&T inoculations, and fleece assessments. Haltering and leading alpacas at its best. You are welcome to watch or help. We simply request if you would like to attend even if you stop by for only 20 minutes to let us know at least two weeks in advance so that we can anticipate the number of folks who will be here for the day. We hope to see you then and happy we can provide the opportunity. We may even hand you a lead or to to hang onto.
