Open Days

COME ALONG AND CELEBRATE JEMMA’S 22nd BIRTHDAY

We are passionate about the health and well-being of all alpacas and have quickly gained a reputation for giving neglected and unwanted alpacas a second chance of life. Since the start of 2024 we have taken in a staggering 38 alpacas that were either rescued or surrendered.

The costs of caring for these animals, particularly twice daily feeding, husbandry tasks and veterinary care are ever increasing. So that we can continue to help these neglected animals, we are raising funds through hosting Open Days in Autumn, Winter and Spring

Our next Open Day will be Sunday 2 November 2025 from 9am – 3pm. Our oldest rescue alpaca Jemma is turning 22nd and she wants everyone to celebrating this milestone with her! 

To make it less overwhelming for our animals, a limited numbers of tickets will be available for entry within any 15 min period. When booking, please select what time you would like to arrive. There is no time limit to how long you can stay.
