This is for a guided and interactive SPRING PRIVATE TOUR for a SMALL GROUP (up to 5 participants) or LARGE GROUP (up to 10 partiicipants). Duration for both tours: approximately 40 minutes

Set atop one of the highest peaks of the beautiful Catskill Mountains in upstate New York is our 40-acre family farm, Buck Brook Alpacas, where we raise and breed over 100 Huacaya alpacas. Other farm residents include (but are not limited to!) Angora bunnies, chickens, cats, and a pig named Daisy.

We offer public and private tours year-round you and your loved ones can take anywhere from a short 45-min tour to an extended few hours' visit taking a tour walking an alpaca, shopping alpaca gifts, or taking in the scenic view with a picnic.

Fun and learning for all ages, plus play a part helping to to spread awareness about these sustainably-beneficial fiber producers!

Duration: approx. 40 minutes

On the day of your tour:

PLEASE ARRIVE 10 MINUTES EARLY to allow time for checking in prior to your tour. We will not be able to wait for you to begin, but you may join the group upon arrival.

Meet your friendly and knowledgeable guide at the big barn 5 minutes prior to your scheduled tour time for sign-in, then learn all about our fabulous fiber-makers, the Huacaya alpaca and Angora rabbit, and how their luxuriously-soft and sought-after fleece is processed and crafted into a multitude of home and personal goods without any harm to the animal.

Feed the alpacas and meet the new babies (called "crias"). Find out what the first year in the life of an alpaca is like. We cover breeding, showing, feeding, felting, and a bit history. 

You are invited to spend some time enjoying the farm before/after your demo.

  • Refreshments will be available for purchase

  • The farm store will be open for purchasing alpaca gifts and souvenirs

  • Portable toilets and sanitizer stations will be offered on the premises

Private tours begin on the hour—every hour—with the exception of 12PM when our animals and guides take a midday break :)

CANCELLATION POLICY: Tours must be canceled 24 hours prior to your booked time. Purchase amount will be applied towards a future tour or in the farm store or website.
