Join us and our llamas for a 2-mile nature walk and explore the trails on our farm. We'll walk trails along our pastures and into the woods with your own llama companion. You'll learn the history of the camelid family, llama domestication, and how llamas and alpacas are used today. We'll also have the opportunity to tour the farm facility, meet the rest of the herd, and learn more about how we prepare and use their fiber. Other things to note: * We reserve the right to cancel an experience in the event of bad weather - we will walk in light rain, but will cancel in the event of heavy rain; * We do not schedule these walks in the middle of summer (July and August) as it gets too hot for the animals, but will add days from time to time over the summer as we check the weather forecast for cooler days. Each child under 10 years old must be accompanied by a parent or guardian and will share a llama on the trails with an adult unless they've had prior experience with handling large livestock. Please do not ask to bring your pup as saying ‘no’ makes us sad.

Come spend time with horses, goats, cats and kittens, chickens and ducks on our 8-acre hobby farm! Guests will have the opportunity to groom Chester, our adorable miniature horse, pet our sweet rescue horse, Epic, who is 26 years young! and learn about basic horse care and anatomy, grooming and welfare of horses. We'll visit our friendly milk goats, including Flora, our little Lamancha goat, and learn about caring for dairy goats. Guests will also meet our affectionate barn cats and various chickens and ducks who live on our farm, and learn about the jobs each of the animals have, including bug control! Guests are welcome to stay for seasonal refreshments afterward. Enjoy a taste of farm life and a slower pace in the countryside surrounded by the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains. (This experience is conducted completely outside, during the summer we provide a natural essential-oil based bug spray, please feel free to bring your own bug spray if you prefer. Sunscreen and/or a hat is also recommended.)

For Folks who might value pushing their limits... We'll be at The Ix Art Park in downtown Charlottesvile, a beautiful place, OR you've organized your own group, Team Building or extreme fitness event and we come to you!. The whole experience will take about two hours. We'll start with some simple breathing exercises to enjoy the body, practice relaxation, then a couple breath practices that bring us into and out of internal, self directed states of intensity. A little bit of talk on how we can upregulate and down regulate the sympathetic nervous system, and how we can use that to support our experience and sense of empowerment in the ice, stress at work, to help go to sleep, deal with negative behavior, and all the ways we experience stress in our lives. Then we start rounds of high heat dry sauna and ice baths. I will be coaching you through all of the experience. you will be in community and enjoying your body, breathing and nervous system. The whole point is to get familiar with the range of our nervous system, our ability to be aware of it, and discover that we can regulate our body-mind. When your done you'll feel like a million bucks and have had an experience of expansion and empowerment that carries into your life. Other things to note VERY IMPORTANT: You are guided by the providers, and all the while YOU are in charge of participation, your experience, and using wisdom and responsibility to regulate your self. There’s no wrong way, only YOUR way.
