The new wool has arrived
An exciting delivery this week! We have another great video for you coming up with lots of information about our herd's wool, why it's taken us 18 months to get the perfect spinner, their different qualities and how much work goes into this. For now, here's the unboxing. New colours now available on our online shop, and from the farm too
🦙🧶** WOOL WORKSHOP ON TOUR!!!**🧶🦙
In collaboration with Lower Bush Alpacas , we are co-hosting our Fleece to Felt workshop!
Come and join us on Sunday 20th November 2022 between 1pm - 4pm, in Cuxton, Kent, England!
The afternoon will start with meeting & feeding the friendly boys at Lower Bush Alpacas, where you will discover their characters and maybe even decide on a favourite.
We will share our passion and knowledge of alpacas and teach you all about their unique fleece and it’s qualities and uses.
Then comes the fun part - felting! After you’ve chosen some of your favourite alpacas fleece, we will teach you how to turn that bundle of soft fluff into felt. Using the wet felting technique, you will create some felted soap and, time permitting, a bookmark.
Book via Lower Bush Alpacas here https://www.lowerbushalpacas.co.uk/s-projects-basic

It’s seen 200 guests this summer, now we give the tent some care and put it to bed for the winter. Until next year!
Thanks to our work experience student, Beth, for filming and narrating this video
Nous n'avons pas oublié les filles lors de notre sortie. Des haricots verts frais du marché. Je pense que Pepper les aime 👍
Well, we thought we’d see what all the fuss is about... it’s corn!
Let me show you a little side project I was working on over the summer. Pepper is a work in progress, maybe this time next year...
They are too adorable, and just so special!
Kisses from all of us to you

Holly ❤️ alpaca or Labrador?
Double day weekend at the medieval chateau @ebaupinay and we captured Blaze, Clove, Holly and Blossom joining in on ye olde song song 😁🦙🎼
We started halter training with Blossom about 10 days before this. She was such a natural, we added the lead and voila! Here’s her with mama Blaze testing the driveway. Hands up who wants to walk Blossom next year 🙋🏻♀️
Nous sommes ouverts pour vous permettre de visiter et de nourrir les alpagas cet après-midi
Blaze’s first venture through Sanzay and what a star ⭐️ but we couldn’t help laughing when we realised she jumps over the white lines
