Morning light pools across rolling pasture as llamas and alpacas lift their heads, curious and unhurried. Guests gather at the farm store parking lot, trade introductions with friendly barn cats and pygora goats, then receive a short safety briefing before clipping a lead onto a soft, woolly companion. The walk moves slowly—past paddocks, across grassy flats, and alongside a stocked bass pond that seems to watch the procession with placid interest.
