Northern Solstice Alpaca Farm In Maine Makes For A Fun Family Day Trip
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.
We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life as we all practice social and physical distancing. While we’re continuing to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, we don’t expect or encourage you to go check them out immediately. We believe that supporting local attractions is important now more than ever and we hope our articles inspire your future adventures! And on that note, please nominate your favorite local business that could use some love right now: https://www.onlyinyourstate.com/nominate/
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!
Baby alpacas are called crias and they weigh about 18 pounds when they're born. They begin walking just hours after birth and they're impossibly adorable!
Northern Solstice Alpaca Farm is open Wednesday through Sunday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. You can learn more about them on their website or visit them on Facebook. If you have questions, you can reach them on 207-356-2464.
If you love alpacas so much that simply seeing them isn’t enough, consider heading out on a hike with one! You can do it in Southport and this article will tell you everything you need to know.
