They can feed goats, sheep, bighorn sheep, alpacas through fence. Chickens are turkeys are running around free and it's set up great that you can roam and not feel like your on top of other guests. They have a sandbox type silo, a bunch of toy trucks to play with, some climbing and swinging items and a small play house (we did not go in because a bunch of kids were playing). I would say go early bring a lunch and sit out and play and let kids explore. It's a little pricy $15 for anyone over 12 months so a family of 4 is $60 but I'm sure it helps the farm keep well maintained. I would go back and recommend to anyone with small kids.

Ranch owner Cindy couldn't have been a more pleasant guide. She provided information about alpacas answering every question we could ask and more. Of course we spent quite some time with about a dozen mothers and babies. With the treats provided, these skittish creatures became our very good friends. Cindy made clear that she would really favor a group of handicapped or disadvantaged children to a bunch of boisterous 8-th graders. This is a working ranch that focuses on stud fees, fleece, and selling well-bred animals and visits are just a small part of the income stream.

To a Spinner, there is no fleece more coveted than the might Alpaca. Never mind you are spinning a…read morefleece that feels like butter and never mind the vast versatility of the fleece, never mind this luxurious fleece is hypoallergenic or the fact you can choose between Huacaya which has amazing crimp, or for he more advanced spinner, can use Suri which has no crimp....just a few good reasons to choose Alpaca fleece but the reason you really choose Alpaca....for me, is the animal itself. How could anyone resist those baby doll faces and sweet temperaments? Now, I have to admit to being a hobby farm enthusiast, mainly because our family used to be hobby farm owners, so the animal is just as important to me as the fleece. When it came time to go on my search to find my first Alpaca Fleeces, I wasn't interested in just ordering on-line or having a friend procure one for me, I wanted to feel my way through the process. You will never imagine my joy at having found 'Stargazers Ranch' in Loveland, Colorado. When you go to Stargazers, you are not going to just purchase a fleece, you are going for the experience! My experience started when my husband helped me into my wheelchair...why is that significant you ask? That is my way of telling you they are completely accessible! Yes, even in a wheelchair, you can have a complete experience and not have to sit at the edge of the barn floor and watch from a distance as happens so many times when you are confined to a chair. When I arrived at Stargazers, I arrived to dozens of fleeces and roving's having been sat out for me. Since I am a relatively new spinner, I needed some advice and instruction in choosing my fleeces. I knew I wanted a skirted fleece since I still have difficulty choosing what should go and what should stay. I was offered a vast array of skirted and tipped fleeces in every color Alpacas have to offer. I love the beauty of natural darker colored Alpacas so that is where my eyes went. I purchased everything from a dark gray, a dark brown and a dark fawn, and, of course, a stunning white from a girl named Curly Sue. The micron counts ranged from approximately 18 to 23 and they all promised hours of joyful spinning. After the delightful experience of mini-lessons on choosing an Alpaca Fleece and going through dozens of choices, having made my decisions, I was offered the opportunity of meeting the stars of Stargazers, the Alpacas themselves. I was treated so kindly. The owners went above and beyond to allow me in the pens with the Alpacas, starting with babies...how fun is that!?! The Alpacas were timid of me at first, after all, I drove in their pens in an electric wheelchair. It was a bit intimidating for them at first, but I was given some treats and it didn't take long for the promise of treats to overcome their skittishness around the wheelchair. In no time, I was surrounded by excited Alpacas. We went from pen to pen, meeting all the girls and boys of the farm...my joy was complete! If you want a fabulous Alpaca Fleece, by all means, go on-line and purchase fleece from Stargazers, you can't do better than their babies. However, if by chance, you happen to find yourself in Colorado and want an experience you will never forget, stop by Stargazers. I am taking home four bags full of beautiful Alpaca fiber but I have to tell you, I have my eye on a little girl we met whose fleece is destine to be on my wheel after her next shearing!!! I have found my Alpaca Fleece source! You should give them a try and make Stargazers your Alpaca Fleece providers of choice!!!

I read an article about Capella Ranch's api-therapy huts and the hubs and I thought it would be…read moreawesome to try them. For my husband's birthday last weekend, I booked us each a 55 minute api-therapy appointment. We were in our individual huts and the experience was amazing!! Being beekeepers ourselves, we have a great love for bees and completely understand their importance and benefits that they bring to the world. The huts are very cozy and you're provided clean towels if you choose to rest your head on a pillow. While this seems the best way to lay in the hut, you really cannot hear the bees. They provide a face cradle so you can lay on your stomach and that worked so much better. I put my nose between the cedar planks so that I could inhale so much more of the hive air and I cannot tell you how much I absolutely love the smell of wood combined with the scent of honey and honeycomb! Don't worry, the bees cannot get to you as there is a wire mesh to keep them separate from you. Since there is a sliver of light coming through the hive side, you can watch the bees working. The huts themselves are bright and full of light. I fell asleep probably within 5 minutes after I adjusted myself and slept for about 40 minutes. To me, the collective of bees sounded like rushing water once you listen past the single, higher pitched buzzes. We both felt completely relaxed and refreshed afterward. I suggest everyone to give api-therapy a try!!
