Authentic PEI Experience
Step behind the scenes of our working alpaca farm for a memorable 90-minute journey into the world of alpacas, fibre, and storytelling.
Meet our charming alpacas, learn where they come from, and discover how their fleece becomes luxurious yarn. Psst: It's milled locally and hand-dyed right here on the farm.
Then, try your hand at spinning with a drop spindle, guided by the farmer-dyer herself. It’s a hands-on, heartwarming experience full of fun facts, fibre lore, and a few good yarns along the way.
This experience is offered as follows:
- Tuesdays - Saturdays from mid-May to late June
- Mondays - Saturdays from late June to Labour Day
- selected Fridays or Saturdays in September/October
What to expect
-
A guided, interactive tour where you’ll meet the herd and learn about them, and the fibre they produce
-
No two tours are alike - return guests are always welcome!
-
Every tour ends with a visit to our boutique, featuring our custom-milled yarns and other alpaca goods
-
This is not a petting zoo experience, but you’ll have the opportunity to interact with alpacas as they go about their normal day
