Visit our unique mountaintop alpaca farm and store, and connect to what matters – yourself, your family, a real farm experience. Apple Hill Farm is open year-round hosting a number of educational animal experiences, including guided walking tours of our working alpaca farm. On these tours, guests get up close and personal with the alpacas, llamas, donkeys, horses, goats and other animals that work

and play at Apple Hill Farm. Every animal has a specific job, and many have a story as well! In addition to farm animals, Apple Hill Farm is also home to the largest selection of alpaca products in the High Country of North Carolina. With more than 20 varieties of alpaca yarn, gloves, scarves, socks, sweaters, vests and stuffed animals there is something for everyone.

With September's arrival we're all starting to think about fall color!

Our friends at High Country Host put together this graphic to give you an idea of when to expect peak fall color this year!

We get some amazing views here on the farm, so we hope you'll join us to see the animals and the leaves!

There's something peaceful about feed rounds on the farm - even with the sound of the Kubota in the background!

Our farm is home to around 75 animals and it's a big job to care for all of them, but we wouldn't trade it for the world!

Dolly and Dude are loving being back on the tour route!

We recently had them trade places with Buckaroo and they love all the tours! Buckaroo is enjoying hanging out 'down below' with all of female alpacas and taking a break from the hustle and bustle. All three donkeys are very social, so we like to swap things up every few months so they all get a chance to see our guests!
