What a perfect day to introduce our new project!

The growth of the farm and opportunities for participants is only possible due to all of the hard work behind the scenes.

This establishing space will have an air conditioned consult room for privacy and comfort, an accessible bathroom, and new staff room.

We cannot truly express our gratitude for my husband, Steve. Thank you for sharing your many skills and creating yet another amazing space for From the Ground Up Wellbeing Farm community.

Before and after photos!
Alpaca pamper day🛁💅

Aurora and Eve are ready for the warm days of spring sunshine.

The alpaca fleece is shorn once a year coming into spring. This process takes planning to make it stress free for the animal.
This is a great time for health maintenance, the professional will trim their hooves, worm and vaccinate them.

Proper health care and maintenance is vital for all of our animals to ensure their health and happiness for their role at the farm.
