Face the Fleece: A Private 30‑Minute Alpaca Encounter in Cape May.
On a small Cape May farm, a handful of visitors step into a pen and meet a herd of friendly, curious alpacas. In a compact, private 30‑minute session you’ll feed the animals carrots provided by the farm, learn a few quirks of individual herd members from your guide, and finish by browsing the on‑site farm shop for cozy alpaca products.

How the 30 Minutes Unfold
You arrive for a short, focused experience: a guide leads your private party into the pens, hands out the farm’s carrots for feeding, offers a running narration about alpaca behavior and the personalities of select herd members, and then directs guests to the farm shop to continue the visit on their own.
