We had the best time visiting the Shaka Alpaca Farm. The hosts are such amazing and wonderful people. You can tell they love their animals and what they do and kept us thoroughly entertained and educated for the entire visit! It’s so great for families with kids. Our son is 20 months and even though he was a little disinterested in the alpacas, goats, chickens and bunnies, he absolutely loved the barn kitten. We HIGHLY recommend a visit to the Shaka Alpaca Farm! And a trip to the farm store after! The honey and the blackberry and strawberry preserves are delicious!
