Our two new black girls Aisha & Naomi joined the herd for the first time this morning after their stay in the quarantine paddock. Firm friendships seem to be forming already…

Another pause in today’s alpaca walk in the sunshine to give the boys a cooling drink of water…

After 371 days inside his mum Bina, first cria of the year Rumpelstiltskin came into the world last night just after 9pm. Very late for a birth, but mum & son both doing well…

Very proud of the very first hay to be made here at Arkadia. Now there’s just the small task left of stacking it in the barn ready for all those hungry alpacas this winter…

A leisurely stroll on a sunny afternoon with Orpheus, Orinoco, Prince, Patch & Quantum…

Excellent results at the Three Counties Show, with a Third for Phineas, Seconds for Pinnacle & Jura, Firsts for Hoffmeister & Raven, who was also awarded Reserve Champion Black Male! 😀😀😀

After a month working with the alpacas, wwoofer Katharina handles them as if she was born to the task. We’re all devastated that today’s her last day at Great Ground Farm.

Friday’s alpaca walkers travelled from far & wide for a sunny afternoon walk…

Photo opportunities and cuddles galore on this afternoon’s walk

The first of our Bank Holiday weekend alpaca walks
