The year ahead for Alpaca Evolution
The Country Smallholder
|Spring 2025
Looking forward to welcoming you to their farm for fun, learning and reflection
-
Like everyone in farming Alpaca Evolution is a servant to the seasons and winter can be the toughest mistress of them all but this winter has been a time of progress and excitement. Dominating both the stress levels and the skyline has been the "big build". The new building is a whopping 100ft x 100ft and brings our ability to meet the welfare needs of the herd to a whole new level. The latter part of 2024 also saw the establishment of beautiful new walkways through the farm. This exciting addition means that May 2025 will see us add new walks to our already popular selection of alpaca experience packages. These will take you into the heart of the UK's largest alpaca herd. February came in wet but none the less
