If you’re in or near the Asheville area, I *highly* recommend a visit to Last Penny Farm! It is such a special and magical experience. My family enjoyed it so much, and will treasure the memories forever! My kids cannot wait to go back again someday. The alpacas are so ADORABLE and full of personality and are so good with children. We got to learn about them, pet them, hang out with them for over an hour, feed them, and my son really bonded with one sweet girl named Lizzy, giving her all the snuggles! Erin (the owner) is the absolute BEST!!!! She’s so wonderful, friendly, sweet, kind, patient, knowledgeable - she’s a true *GEM* !! She even cleaned the mud and alpaca poopy off of our boots for us! I was happy to have the opportunity to purchase some super cute alpaca plush toys for my kids to commemorate the visit, as well as a cozy headwrap for me, knit by hand by Erin herself, with the fiber from her alpacas. She makes cute beanie hats too! So happy to support this amazing woman and her passion for alpaca farming!

We were doing some scenic driving when we saw the signs for the Vance Birthplace, not a native to NC, so we wanted to stop and get the history. Such a wonderful experience takes about an hour to explore if you love history! Has a nice covered shelter for a family picnic as well. We will bring our grandchildren on our return trip to NC.
