Alpaca Haven Farm of Kentucky & Store

Alpaca Haven Farm of Kentucky in Waddy is a great place to take an alpaca farm tour! My family and I recently visited the farm and had a blast. The owners, Morgan and Carolyn Dowdy, were very friendly and very knowledgeable. You can tell they really care about their animals. They greeted us as we got out of our car, and handed each of the children a bag of food for the alpacas (and a bone for their dog). They showed us around the farm, let the children feed and pet the animals, and told us lots of information about these adorable creatures. My daughters went on another alpaca tour a few months ago, but this was the first time my nieces had every seen alpacas. They loved feeding them and getting their picture taken with them.

After visiting with all of the alpacas, their llama, and the farm dog, we headed inside to the store. The farm store is located in the back part of their house, and is a very nice set up. There were so many unique and luxurious alpaca items. They had a wide range of clothing (socks, sweaters, scarves), toys, books, puzzles, among other items. If you want to browse the store you can make an appointment by calling 502-682-0617 or emailing dowdy@alpacahavenkentucky.com. We plan on making a trip back when the weather gets cooler.

The trip ended with a craft for the girls to take home. Each one received an alpaca coloring page and some real alpaca fleece to glue on their page. They also got to take home a cross word puzzle that helped them learn even more about alpacas!

The farm also does birthday parties! Talk about a unique party idea! You can find information and pricing on their website under the party tab.
