Many of our visitors confuse our llamas and our alpacas. Both are camelids, but if you take a closer look, you can tell the two species apart. Our very talented volunteer, illustrator Nicholas Carter has created this handy and beautiful guide to distinguishing between llamas and alpacas.

Our open spaces, wildlife and farm animals offer an escape from city life and inspiration for artists! Has the farm inspired your art? Share your work with us! There are lots of way to share, including via Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

Children take an extra close look at the animals in a drawing class around the farm. This young man has really captured our loveable rogue Boxer the Llama.
