Have you ever wanted to learn more about farming and caring for Alpacas? Do you have a small herd or recently purchased a property with an interest in livestock? Little Valley Farm, based in the Lower Hunter Valley, has been working with alpacas since 2012. Our alpaca workshops are one of the most well-recognised and attended in NSW since being established in 2019. Workshops happen throughout the year, at least monthly.
Little Valley Farm is based in the Wollombi Valley at Laguna, under two hours from Sydney and 90 minutes from Newcastle.
Most attendees come because they love Alpacas and want to know more about them before purchasing their farm or acreage property.
Little Valley Farm reviews essential topics such as Alpaca care, fencing, shelters, feed, shearing and all alpaca husbandry needs during these workshops. People also learn how to handle alpacas carefully and confidently. It's a great insight into the world of a small hobby farm and the personalities and character of each alpaca.
The workshop ends with a chat and morning tea overlooking the farm. This is a perfect chance to gain from other people's experiences and properties and to meet other alpaca and small farm enthusiasts.
