Wednesday, July 6, 2022 Alpaca Farm Video
2 High School seniors, Charlotte Fishburne and Katherine Deforrest, visited the farm in May, as part of a project for a journalism class. They produced this MP4 video: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1lSlFeYZiGJlEA-zWoLDNwQzUa1f0R3dX/view .It was only 6 weeks after shearing, so the alpacas are "naked". But I think they are beautiful when they are shorn.Good job, ladies!!
