There are plenty of ways to visit the farm in 2024!

Although we are a working farm and cannot accommodate drop-in visitors, we’ve got options!

First, see if you can attend one of our pre-scheduled meet & greet experiences.

A meet & greet is a ticketed event that happens each month from March through September, where you can interact with and hand feed the alpacas.

We keep Meet & Greets to a small group so everyone has a magical experience.

We generally release tickets about 3 weeks in advance.

The next tentatively scheduled meet & greets are April 27, May 19, and June 16.

Tickets are released to our email subscribers first and will be located in our online farm store.

What if you don’t see a Meet & Greet event during your time visiting Walla Walla?

Or what if you want to have a special experience to celebrate a birthday or commemorate a special event?

Then your next option is to request a Private Meet & Greet experience.

These Private Meet & Greet experiences start at $125 and include up to 8 people; additional guests are $15.

As a small farm, we do our best to accommodate requests for private experiences, and require advanced payment to secure the date.

Reach out early for the best opportunity to secure a private farm experience using the form below.

Ever met an alpaca before?

Our alpaca Meet & Greet is the perfect introduction to alpacas. In this 1-hour event you’ll get to meet the members in an up-close and personal way.

Delight in their gentle humming sounds and silly antics. Take in their beautiful soulful eyes and their shaggy, soft fleece! Hand feed their favorite afternoon snack and experience their fuzzy lips tickle your palms.

Petals & Pacas

Petals & Pacas

Join us on the farm for a fun collaboration with our other farm business, Gholson Gardens.

We will start in the cutting garden, taking in the surrounding big sky vistas as we stroll the rows of blooming flowers, all while our curious alpacas watch from their adjacent pasture.

Instruction on assembling a flower crown will be provided so each participant can handcraft their own, incorporating some of the herd’s ultra soft fiber!

As we don our new flower crowns, we’ll meet the herd up-close & in person!

A brief Alpaca 101 will give everyone a solid understanding of the alpacas role in our farm as well as an opportunity to hand feed them. And then an individual photoshoot will provide the perfect momento of a unique day on the farm.

This workshop is a perfect way to learn a new skill, spend time in flowers, meet the alpacas and have a great time with old & new friends. It would make a great mother-daughter bonding event, an outing with gal pals, and a fun experience for anyone looking to do something different!

Light refreshments will be provided. Children are welcome but this workshop is recommended for 12 years old and above. Everyone in attendance must have a ticket.
