2013 Shearing

We had the most perfect weather for our shearing this year. Sunny and around 24 degrees. The animals were dry and clean beforehand and loved rolling in the long grass and lazing in the sun afterwards.

Thanks to our amazing shearing team, everything ran like clockwork. You were all fantastic and we are so appreciative of your skill, enthusiasm and the time you give up to help us shear our alpacas.
