Hickory Lane Alpacas is a working farm in Napanee that keeps 32 alpacas alongside chickens, ducks, pigs, goats, horses, and peacocks. The farm runs on education and animal welfare first, with guided tours that walk you through the enclosures and let you feed the alpacas by hand.

What to Expect

The tours are hands-on. You will walk through the enclosures, touch and feed the animals, and hear about how they are cared for on a working farm. Kids tend to gravitate toward the alpacas, but the peacocks, pigs, and goats hold their own.

 

Here’s What’s Different

  • Alpacas can be hand-fed directly for a close-up interaction.
  • Peacocks, roosters, and ducks roam the property freely.
  • The tour walks you through the actual working enclosures of the farm.

Good to Know 

  • Booking an appointment in advance is required. While tours are free, donations help support the care of the 32 resident alpacas and the rest of the animals on the property.

Wear sturdy, closed-toe shoes. You will be walking directly in the animal enclosures during your tour.

  • Alpaca wool is naturally hypoallergenic, flame-resistant, and water-resistant.
  • You may encounter roosters, ducks, and peacocks moving freely during your visit.
