Alpacas available to 4-H members

There are free alpacas available. Stan, a gentleman who has donated Alpacas before has retired and would like to downsize his herd. 4-H members would have to take two or more alpacas since they will not thrive when they are raised without others. He has about 10-12 males ages 9 months to 4-5 years old that he would like to donate to 4-H members. 4-H members will need to provide verification of their membership.

Please let Rebecca Sellers at rad5003@psu.edu know if you are interested in this opportunity.
