Our farm tour season of May 1st has been deluged by rain ever since. For those who have already scheduled, please check the weather before you make plans. As of now, more rain is coming and the ground is standing in water everywhere. Our tour is a “walking” tour so remember this! The weather has been hateful!

Ah!! Sheep shearing is over for another year! Thanks for all the help … John and Noah (service hours from CCH), Eli (our grandson who helps us at the farm), Lana (my neighbor and her sheep), Sharon and Chris (my dearest friends who help so much).

Our new baby is doing well. He and mama are staying in the birthing stall during this rainy weather and will put them out maybe on Sunday. Still pondering a name, but thinking about Teddy (my cousin Belinda gave me the idea). Here’s another recent photo.

Touring season is closed until end of April, but we are looking forward to see everyone in the spring! Hoping for a few new babies in the fall to see. We are looking forward for your visit in a few months!

Time to catch up with the farm…..its been a few years since we bred some of the alpacas. We worked on breeding with our sheep instead. This fall we’ve exposed 6 females and are hoping that most of yhem have settled, so we are hoping for crias in September-October, 2022. You will want to see the new babies!
