National Alpaca Farm Days in Review

White River Alpacas, made the news! Alpacas Make the News

We had a beautiful weekend for our Open Barn. It was sunny, warm and ‘Paca Perfect! The alpacas, as expected, were a big hit – even with the local news station.

We must report that the voting contest became skewed when Unicorn decided to have her cria on opening morning. We thought Pablo might become the “Farm Favorite” with his outgoing personality and unique spots.

He was one of the farm favorites

But then Grace’s 3 week old cria had spots too…

"Marble" needs a name

but then Unicorn had her newborn on Opening Day, and all bets were off. He was definately the “farm favorite”.

This was the Farm Favorite

Our barn was totally transformed into a shopping area…

Shopping area in the barn

With new hand dyed yarn, felted pictures and table runners…

Felted scarf, felting kits and Ashford Fiber art supplies

and this one of a kind faux felted scarf.  The wind was strong on Sunday making it difficult to keep things in place and take photographs, but such are the challenges of country living!

I also had my book for sale, “That Kind of Day” about my horse, Sunshine as well as Ashford’s fiber art books.

My rugs were displayed, but not right for photos, and as always, the notecards were a big hit. 

Carla had her Comfort Caps and her new stlyle of Happy Heads for sale…

… and overall, it was a great day!
