Frequently Asked Questions
Why are you charging for this event?
Our events have become so popular, we needed to find a way to do a little crowd control. We’ve seen that this will make it a more enjoyable experience for those who choose to come.
Where does the money go?
All funds raised go directly toward caring for the animals that call Blue Moon Ranch home.
Can we feed the alpacas?
No, they do quite well grazing on fresh pastures or hay in winter, so they might get sick if we let guests offer them treats.
Can we pet the alpacas?
The friendlier ones often come right up to the fences and allow you to touch them. The more shy ones stay back a little so they feel safe.
Do you have items for sale?
Yes we do! We have a small gift shop called Yaya’s Yarn Barn with lots of alpaca items that are made from the fiber of our herd. We carry alpaca yarn, alpaca socks, alpaca hats, alpaca gloves, locally made pottery, hand made soaps and more!
What happens in inclement weather?
The event goes on. We have never cancelled an event for snow or rain and our visitors have a good time in all kinds of weather.
Can I bring my dog?
Sorry, no. Our guardian dogs will not allow any other dogs near their alpacas.
Do you have public restrooms?
No, sorry. For our 4 hour events, we do not rent porta potties. Please plan ahead.
