Part of the adventure of our recent trip to Maine was the fiber art related excursions. My husband and I visited just a few places that had to do with my passion for fiber, but they were all very memorable. Probably my favorite fibery stop was at Winters Gone Farm. It is an alpaca farm just outside of Wiscasset, Maine. Skip and Judi Taylor run the farm and small alpaca store along with the help of their collie, Harry. It has a lovely little shed/barn area for the alpacas as well as a nice yarn and picnic area. The small shop carries a wide array of items made from alpaca roving. They also sell alpaca roving by the ounce, which, of course, I had to buy some!

Shalana, thanks for mentioning our farm. Hey, I've never been spit on by an alpaca. I've been caught in the crossfire when they are having a little dispute. I had one gelding get a little pushy with me and I spit at him. He was never agressive again.
