One of the things we love best about Maine is the many ways we can all enjoy the wildlife and outdoors. There are hikes that bring us closer to the animals like moose, but is there anything more adorable than a cute alpaca? We’re going with a definitive no to answer that question and that’s why we think you’ll love visiting this fun little farm.

Northern Solstice Alpaca Farm is located in Unity and offers visitors the chance to interact with the most adorable animals on the planet!

Alpacas are known to be sweet and gentle. They're herd animals and are social with each other. And they also love to interact with humans. Perhaps as much as we love to be around them!
