Farm Visit / Alpaca Encounter
Important things to know before you come: - Visit times are firm, so please arrive at your visit time to avoid extended time fees! - Please, NO DOGS. They scare the alpacas & agitate our livestock guardian dogs. - We do not have bathroom facilities. In an emergency we can allow use of our home bathroom. - Students, please do not plan to take a taxi or Uber to the farm, as we are too far from Ithaca!
We are a small family farm with no staff or regular hours and we will be opening the shop and preparing the alpacas for your visit, so please call if for some reason you can't make it at your visit time. During birthing season there's a chance we could have a birth on your visit day. We'll do our best to give you the usual great experience, but we might be a little bit preoccupied! *There is no charge for a visit just to the Farm Shop, or for those interested in purchasing alpacas. Please, contact us directly by text or call to schedule. ABOUT YOUR VISIT: When you visit the farm you can learn all about the alpacas, hand-feed them and feel their wonderful fleece, take pictures and even a selfie with them! You will also be greeted by our very friendly Livestock Guardian Dogs. After you meet the alpacas, please plan to do some shopping in SHEPHERDS CREEK ALPACAS FARM SHOP! We have beautiful hand-made accessories, yarn & roving from our own alpaca fleece, as well as commercially made sweaters, socks, hats, alpaca dolls, teddy bears & more!
