What a fun surprise. Along with the bills and the advertising we received a wonderful bit of news in the mail a few days ago. We opened the envelope to find pictures of our beautiful Kikisan, Party Girl, Hersey Kiss and their respective offspring along with the headline "Ely Farm Home to Gentle Alpacas" on the front page of one of the sections of the Sunday edition of the Mesabi Daily News. It was just so fun to see our critters in the paper--and Kikisan was born on our farm so that was doubly fun.
It was a lovely article and helps to promote the lifestyle and benefits of alpaca ownership--not to mention the marketing opportunities this type of publicity can create. Jan is a busy real estate executive (contrary to what the article says--she may have sold the business but she still puts in a full week's work at the real estate office) so if she can find the time to take care of these wonderful critters most others could do the same.
Congratulations to Boundary Water Alpacas for reflecting what is best about this industry.
