On the weekend of September 27th & 28th make plans to visit an alpaca ranch near you!  This will be the second National Alpaca Farm Days event.  Here at Hill Country Alpacas we are once again looking forward to this fun weekend and introducing friends, neighbors, and those looking into getting into the alpaca business to our alpacas. 

2007 was the first year for this event created by AOBA (Alpaca Owners and Breeders Association), our national organization, and it was a huge success.  The purpose was for all alpaca ranches in the nation to have a common weekend in which we could have an open ranch day and introduce alpacas, the products made from alpaca fiber, and the lifestyle that it affords.

Please visit www.nationalalpacafarmdays.com for information on this event.  On September 1st on this same site there will be even more information on the event with a link to locate a participating alpaca farm near you.  Hill Country Alpacas will be open on Saturday, September 27th from 10am to 3pm, and we may be open on Sunday, September 28th also.  Just haven’t decided yet on that day.  But, keep posted, we will let you know.

We are planning on having some fiber artists, spinners and weavers at the ranch that day, along with some beautiful alpaca products.  Our alpacas will all be here and are looking forward to meeting everyone!
