Sawdust Alpacas Store Update
Farm Raising - grand prize drawing
Well, we had our Farm Store (Barn) Raising event on March 20, 2021. We had a great time online (Zoom) and want to thank every one who attended, purchased or donated to our cause. We have purchased Sherwin Williams paint in their new color - ALPACA. How cool is that. We also have purchased lights and the flooring and have some money left for whatever.
We have the store insulation completed with our 2nd and 3rd from prior years shearing. Visqueen over that, sheet rock. Now we are waiting for the tapers to finish and then we can paint, put up lights and ceiling fan, window shades. Then the fixtures and furnishings will go in and then the products. So I think we will be ready to open by Mother's Day.
We have had 12, yes 12, Harvest Host guest this month. We have another coming tomorrow. Then April 2nd, starts another month of registered guests - 12 - 15 so far. We have reservations into September already. We have met some really nice people from all over the US. Gets us out of our own little world of Sawdust Alpacas. Our biggest unit so far has been a 40 foot Class A motor home.
Harvest Hosts Guests take lots of pictures and send them to us. They have gotten some great shots and we really appreciate them.
