Snow River Alpacas Annual Shearing

Tomorrow Peggy is traveling to Colfax, CA to help Snowy River Alpacas with their annual shearing day. Robyn Kuhl from Coarse Broads will be there to sort the fiber.

And don't forget on Saturday, June 27th Carrie Hull from Coarse Broads will be presenting the seminar "A Good Yarn" at our farm in Astoria, OR. The cost is $50. As with all seminars presented at our farm, the cost is waived for clients of Alpacas at Tucker Creek. A continental breakfast will be served at 8:30 am with the seminar scheduled for 9:00 am. We will be shearing the following two days. If you would like to help please contact us on or before Friday, June 26th so we can include you in our duty roster (our email and phone numbers are in the box to the right). If you wish to watch the event but not get dirty (and we do tend to get dirty) the cost of admission is a nonperishable food item for the Clatsop Community Action Regional Food Bank or the Clatsop County Animal Control Shelter.

If you are near Snowy River Alpacas this weekend through Tuesday and would like to learn more about the Certified Sorted™ method please contact Hailey at 530-346-6885 so she and Robyn can be expecting you.
