25.01.2022 When Majestic photobombs and puts her ears down - trying to look innocent. How cute is she? But mum has the feed bucket! #littlevalleyfarm #wollombi #huntervalley #alpaca #alpaka #alpacasofinstagram #instaalpaca

23.01.2022 So here we are finally together in a photo surrounded by our amazing herd of alpacas. Its us, Euan & Daniela! We started our alpaca journey back in 2012 after 15 years living in Europe and Asia for hubbies work and it was an amazing time in our life. We both loved it. I worked for then start-up @luxecityguides in HK & Singapore as well as having our chi-chi marketing company. ... The return brought us back to Sydney but definitely not the city. The Hunter Valley and the charm of the Wollombi Wilderness was the inspiration for our new home. Why alpacas? They are gentle on the land, they are inquisitive, intelligent and oh-so cuddly. We spend everyday working with them and after 8 years we are still learning from them. They are amazing creatures. Over the years we have earned their trust and are gracefully allowed into the herd. They love us as much as we love them. They show it in their eyes. Do they spit? Not really but feeding time you may be in the line of fire. Can I buy one? No. Alpacas are herd animals and need to be in 2-3+. They will die of a lonely heart if left alone. We sell our alpacas to small farms and acreages in the Hunter Valley, Sydney and the Central Coast. We also run alpaca workshops for potential new alpaca owners. Our farm stay is exclusively for four adults and we dont allow day visits here so our guests can enjoy the alpacas all to them self. Open days are held in spring and autumn and sell out within days. Fleece? We use their fleece and spin it into yarn and also sell the raw fleece for spinners and felters. Stay tuned for our spring open day at @littlevalleyfarm. #littlevalleyfarm #wollombivalley #wollombi #lagunansw #hunterxhunter #huntervalley #visithuntervalley #alpacasofinstagram #alpaca #alpacaselfie #alpacafarm #alpacaworld #alpacalove #alpacagram #alpacatoday Thank you @planet_rachor @lienrachor @felixrachor for visiting our alpaca farm and the superb Photos. @ Laguna, New South Wales, Australia

20.01.2022 Three days old and we can confirm it’s a girl. Mum is called Snow-Glow, so we need to think of a name that relates to snow glow for this beautiful little girl? Got any ideas? #littlevalleyfarm #wollombi #wollombiwilderness #lagunansw #newbaby #Alpacafarm #alpaca #alpacas #alpacalove #alpacagram #alpacagram #alpacaworld #alpacafriendschallenge #alpacalife #alpacalovers

19.01.2022 Putting the glamour into glamping at @littlevalleyfarm thanks to red dress adventures @bronflynnphotography What is your favourite glamping essential? #Repost @bronflynnphotography... ~*~ Not with regret but with a smile ~*~ A lot has happened over the last eight months. Some good, some bad, some great, some stressful. While I miss Scotland more than I can explain, I dont regret my time there, as short as it was. I made incredible new friends, gained a hell of a lot of insight into myself and overcame challenges. Most of all, I know I will make it back there one day soon, so that was simply round one. Round two, Im coming for ya! . . #bronflynnphotography #advancedselfie #reddressadventures #thereddress #alpacafarm #girlswhotravel #naturephotography #solotravellingwoman #travelblogger #traveltheworld #travelphotography #travellingthroughtheworld #adventures #photographer #phototips #posingtips #dontregret #dontgiveup #onlytimewilltell #inspired #riparide #highheelsontravel @bronflynnphotography See more

18.01.2022 Little Valley Farm featured in the Hawkesbury Gazette this month with our LUXE picnic with the alpacas. Our LUXE picnic events will hopefully be back in time for the lovely spring weather + the added bonus of many little babies running around the paddocks. We so cant wait.

17.01.2022 Little Bon Jovi standing tall. He is only a week old but strong and determined from the minute he was born. There is no wonder why, with his intense mother Bianca and strong-willed sister Neve, he comes from a long line of incredible characters. All the others still getting to know him and it will be interesting to see where he fits in the herd. The young siblings, Piaf and Banjo, love to sit beside him when mum is eating and get him involved in their running races. Welcome B...on Jovi. #huntervalleyalpaca

13.01.2022 Baby Willie Wagtails waiting for breakfast near the Alpaca Shed. Look closely and you see the whole nest wrapped in alpaca fleece, gathered from our hanging baskets of fleece around the farm. We hope that helps keep them cool this weekend in this summers first heat wave.... PM us if you would like a large bag of the left over unspinnable fleece for just $5. #alpaca #AussieBirdCount #birdlovers

12.01.2022 Paris and baby Piaf at sundown. Such a wonderful mum taking care of her adorable and super playful little grey cria (baby alpaca). Piaf a favourite in front of the camera. ... It was a long wait as alpacas are pregnant for 11.5 months - yeap. 11.5 months! Well worth the wait. More crias due to unpack next month. Stay tuned from your Hunter valley alpaca breeder. credit @planet_rachor #littlevalleyfarm #wollombivalley #wollombi #huntervalley #alpacalove #weekendvibes #alpaca #alpacababy #alpacasofinstagram #instaalpaca #alpacafarm #alpacaworld #alpacalover

We have alpaca raw fleece available for sale In huacaya and Suri from $10 per saddle. #littlevalleyfarm #lagunansw #wollombi #wollombivalley #alpacafarm #alpaka #alpacasofinstagram #alpacas #alpacalove #alpacafibre #alpacayarn #instaalpacas #alpacastyle #alpacalover #alpacagram #alpakafarm @planet_rachor

12.01.2022 There is so much going on at the farm these days. We can’t keep up! . The bees are happily enjoying our sunflower and lavender hill and it looks so pretty against the super fast growing lush grass. There is plenty of food for the bees right now. We have our old flowhive but need to get it back into action. We stopped during the horrible bush fires last year. If there is anyone wanting to put more hives out on our farm we certainly have plenty of space and food for our lit...tle pollinators. Let us know and I would be super stoked to get some help out here with the bees. . . . #littlevalleyfarm #alpacafarm #lavenderfarm #sunflowers #bees #flowhive #flowhivehoney #beekeepers #beekeeper #lagunansw #huntervalley See more

11.01.2022 Great weekend vibes thanks to baby Oberon. What a cuddly cutie! Her Mum is Sukey our white huacaya. Sukey is a champion. Last winter she was bitten by a red belly snake. It was horrible but amazingly she pulled through whilst being pregnant with baby Oberon. We had weeks of caring for our girl and both mum and bubs survived. How lucky we are to have them here. ... Our guests get to know Sukey pretty quickly once the feed bucket comes out. She loves to be handfed. Her inner diva comes out and she talks (a lot) whilst eating. A classic girl. Baby Oberon is super fluffy and a quite natured cria. Opposite to her mum! Richmond (dad) loves to roll in his hay. Oberon does the same at feeding time! Dont you just love how they have their own personalities? #littlevalleyfarm #wollombi #huntervalleyalpacas @planet_rachor

10.01.2022 Doing what I love most - taking alpacas! I could talk about these amazing creatures all day long. Mystical, magical and magnificent these pacas take the centre stage and all who meet them fall in love. The perfect livestock for your farm or acerage.... www.littlevalleyfarm.com.au/online-products/alpacatraining

Our youngest is five days old and eldest is 17, how cool is that.... Talk to us about 2021 alpaca workshops in the Hunter Valley.

08.01.2022 Look what’s new on the paddocks this week? Cria alert with more to come. #littlevalleyfarm #wollombi #lagunansw #huntervalley #huntervalleyalpacas #alpaca #alpacasofinstagram #alpacafarm #alpacalove

07.01.2022 Our native birds go crazy over alpaca fibre. What better way to line their nests? It's our way of recycling the scrappy and short leg fleece by placing it in a pretty birdcage or wire box hanging from a tree they love to visit. The birds fly in, take what they need to build their nest. When you need more fleece you can pick it up from us every October after shearing. You don't need a fancy cage hanging from your tree, but it does look great. You can use hanging from old... wire coathangers to make a ball and fill with the fleece or just simple wire. The fleece is also great if you want to use it as a soft toy infill. Pick up Laguna via appointment only. Large bags are only $5 and will last you till next shearing season. #littlevalleyfarm #lagunansw #wollombi #alpacafarm #sustainableliving #alpacafleece #alpacalove #birdlovers #alpacasofinstagram

06.01.2022 Glorious winter days and wonderful stays at Little Valley Farm. We are loving this glorious Winter sun. Lien of @planet_rachor enjoying the late afternoon feeding sessions with our pregnant girls. Yeap, all our ladies are due in Spring and we are going to be super busy once again with little crias (baby alpacas) running around the paddocks. We soo cant wait even know we have been doing this since 2012 - its still super fun waiting for the unpacking! Our lovely pacas... are super friendly and love hanging out with our guests. It must be the special alpaca treats we give them. No human food just good quality hay and special paca pellets.

05.01.2022 The many faces of Neve and she certainly knows how to work a camera. Such attitude this girl! With two days of heat waves hitting us this weekend we recommend keeping the Alpacas under deep shade with a running water trough to keep the temperature cool. ... If your trough is out in the sun adding a bag of ice inside the tub to cool the water down otherwise a plastic iced bottle of water will do well also. Frozen peas or corn for the chickens and Guinea fowl. For me, under the sprinkler I go!

05.01.2022 Alpaca yarn. Alpaca fleece. 100% pure luxury is this ultra sustainable fibre. Also known as the Fibre of Gods for a very good reason. Its glorious! If you are a spinner, knitter or felter please contact us for raw fleece sales. We have white, fawn and chocolate brown fleece saddles for sale from $10-$30 per bag. ... Pick up in Laguna via appointment only. Wear sustainable fibre and help our alpaca and slow fashion movement.

04.01.2022 Alpacas are fascinating animals, but they require special management. Join Daniela at Little Valley Farm for their unique hands-on workshop that is perfect for people living on small farms or acreage and that are thinking of having alpacas as pets.

03.01.2022 One of my favourite photos of years ago during another heat wave by the petite shepherds hut. Nothing like deep shaded areas for the Alpacas’s plus a cool down under the sprinkler. Ice bags in the water trough or iced water bottles to cool it down. Me, I am out there checking up on them. They are clever, they sit under the shade and wait till dusk to venture out. ... #littlevalleyfarm #wollombi #wollombivalley #lagunansw #huntervalley #alpacafarm

02.01.2022 Here we are! Mr Chan & Lady Ho. Our appropriate farm dogs! Mr Chan has rounded up our sheep, once! It lasted until he ran into the cow dung. That was the end of his working life as well as sleeping in our bed! ... Lady Ho on the couch. No need to move much. Both born in Singapore when we lived and worked then and now on the farm with us. Chan loves it. Ho not so much. They are now over 15 years old and are kept away from the alpacas for safety. Up at the house they enjoy the sun. Happy Dog Day today! #littlevalleyfarm #chihuahua #instachihuahua #chihuahuasofinstagram #farmdogsofinstagram #happydoghappylife #happydog
