It was a casual open environment at a local farm..They appreciate you making an appt so they can prepare for you or your group. You get to walk among the alpacas and are encouraged to bring small or baby carrots to feed the alpacas. The owner is very friendly and informative as you walk among the animals.

I purchased a catnip filled alpaca felt “fish” for my cat from Rita’s stand at Lexington Farmer’s Market and my cat went mad over it - it was instantly her favorite toy. Rita also stocks some lovely knitted items that make great gifts.

We didn’t know that you had to schedule an appointment but Rita was so accommodating and kind and still took us on a tour anyways! She was awesome! The alpacas are so sweet and well taken care of.
