Come spend time with our animals, they will help calm your nervous system and put a smile on your face. Our alpacas and goats cannot wait to meet you!

Flowerdew Farm will be hosting a number of workshops, retreats and outdoor events such as willow sculpturing by Jo Sadler Willow, alpaca and goat yoga, animal art classes, wellness and mindful classes and nature inspired workshops.
