Total Eclipse of the Herd: An Alpaca Encounter

- This event has passed.
Total Eclipse of the Herd: An Alpaca Encounter
April 7, 2024 at 1:00 pm – 4:00 pm EDT
$6
per person

Our community will experience a total solar eclipse that will last approximately 2 minutes and 53 seconds. But what do animals do during this natural phenomenon? Will they head to the barn or coop? Will they be confused?
Visit Saint Mary-of-the-Woods on the day before this once-in-a-lifetime event and meet our alpacas and chickens. Get up close with the animals and hear from our staff what the day will be like for our furry and feathered friends.
