Llama and Alpaca Information Day

Experienced llama owners sharing a wealth of meaningful information to people interested in llamas and alpacas.

Welcome to the Llama and Alpaca Information Day Facebook page!

We are a group of devoted and caring camelid lovers. Our mission is to encourage, motivate and extend a helping hand to llama and alpaca owners. We believe that education and mutual support are the keys to keeping llamas and alpacas in loving, caring, forever homes.

Thank you for visiting our FB page. We hope that you will be inspired to be involved with your llamas and alpacas.

In 2007 we had a horrific rescue situation here in Whatcom County Washington State, involving 41 neglected llamas. Many of the organizers of this event assisted in the care, rehab and adoption of these animals. Because of this situation and the frustration associated with people getting animals (llamas specifically) that they know nothing about, we decided to offer a free information day to the adopters of these rescues. At that time we also opened this event up to anybody interested in or that already owned camelids that wanted to learn more about these amazing creatures.

What grew out of this situation was a very positive, informational and fun day. Some years we had over 100 people that came to see how to care for (shearing, shots, toenails, etc.), feed and train camelids. People who attended this event get a day filled with lots of information and education! Because it was so successful we have decided to continue to offer this event for FREE! As time continued, we went from 100% llama owners attending to now we have 75% alpaca owners. There are just too many of them being dumped and not enough homes!

On June 11, 2016 at JNK Llama Farm in Bellingham, Washington we will once again be offering this fabulous service to you! It is open to anybody that wants to learn more about possibly owning or taking care of camelids. There will be no animals available for purchase or promotion of individual farms. All attendees must RSVP prior!
