Get Hands on With Lovable Alpacas at Ranch Open House Day

Just a-mile west of Hwy. 505, off of Allendale Road you can experience
the Treasure of the Ancient Inca Indians, Alpacas.  

From 10:00 a.m – 3 p.m., Sept. 28-29, you have a unique opportunity to meet some truly incredible animals.  Bring the entire family and help celebrate National Alpaca Farm Days.  

Ahh…Sweet Alpacas, located at 7924 Charlotte Lane in Vacaville invites you to 
come and meet the mystical Alpaca up close.  Be sure to bring your camera!

Dozens of alpacas, in a wide variety of colors will be on display, including several 
only a few months old.  

A large variety of Alpaca Fiber Products from Opus Two Alpacas will be available. Plus Alpaca Fleece, and Alpaca Yarn, from Ahh…Sweet Alpacas own herd will also be available.  

You will be amazed at the softness of the Alpaca Clothing and Alpaca Yarn.  
Spinning Demonstrations will be ongoing throughout the day.  Watch and ask questions, as several very experienced spinners spin the alpaca fleece into yarn.

Then see the finished products that are all made from Alpaca Fleece.  

Most importantly you will get to meet and actually get your hands on the Alpacas and their luxurious fleece! 

Alpacas are one of the most fascinating animals that you could possible imagine.  

They come in 22 Natural Colors, and their sweet gentle dispositions, not to mention their curiosity, will capture your heart.  Alpacas were first domesticated 5,000 years ago by the Inca Indians of Peru and became the center of the Inca Culture.

The alpaca fiber is lighter, warmer, and softer than wool, and contains no lanolin!

Now, you can come and see these incredible animals for yourself.

Ahh…Sweet Alpacas is a Vacaville Alpaca Ranch owned by Bruce and Joan Nelson, and Joan’s mother Kathryn Hamilton.  They invite your family to join them, and their alpacas, for all the activities free of charge.
