We are honored to once again be invited to participate in the Spring Fiber Extravaganza May 3-5 2024! For one weekend only guests can tour three farms for free! Besides Black Frog Farm 10908 Belmar Ave Maribel WI 54227, LondonDairy Alpaca Ranch 6827 State Hwy 147 Two Rivers WI 54241, and Velvet Sheep Farms W1681 Garton Road Sheboygan WI 53083 are also open the first weekend in May for guests to check out.
Maybe you follow our social media, or have seen us at events with our llamas, or have driven past Black Frog Farm and wondered what we are all about. We invite you to see it for yourself….
Each day May 3-5 we will be open to the public from 10am to 3pm. We have an army of volunteers to help you around the farm that weekend. Parking attendants will show you where to park your car. Disabled parking is available just let the attendants know you need it.
Guests will be able to tour the entire farm at their own pace. On one side of the drive are the llamas, with a walking trail through the woods and along the pens to see the entirety of the llama set up. On the other side of the drive are sheep, goats, pigs, poultry of all kinds, 2 additional rescue llamas, and baby chicks to touch or hold. Make your way in a loop around our home and come onto the deck and into the shop set up for the weekend. We have fresh eggs from our ducks, chickens and turkeys for sale. We also have a large selection of house plants for sale in unique containers. Logo wear, and unique items from a few vendors will be available for purchase, as well as raw llama fiber and sheep wool from our animals. New this year- get a card punched at all three farms and you can be entered to win a gift basket from any of the farms!
Refreshments will be available all weekend courtesy of Three Brothers Coffee (our nephews). In addition, we are so excited to be hosting food truck Blue Suede Foods Saturday only! We will be posting the menu for that day on our social media shortly before the event. They are just simply AWESOME !! Picnic tables are available for guests as well as a portable restroom.
The Spring Fiber Extravaganza will be held rain or shine. Dress for the weather and wear comfy shoes that can stand a little mud. No guests will be allowed into any of the animal pens for safety reasons. Please do not open any gates. Leave your own pets at home for their own safety. No climbing on any gates or fencing, and please do not allow children to chase any cats or chickens that might be out and hanging around.
You’ll notice that we have quite a few rescue animals of several species. The heart and soul of Black Frog Farm is rescue, and the Extravaganza weekend gives guests the opportunity to see what we do, learn about the different care needed for each species, and even to help us in our future rescue work. ALL proceeds from sales of the weekend are going into the care of the animals on our farm. We also are hoping to be able to fundraise enough to help additional animals this year as the need arises. Any money from purchases or donations go into the medical care, hay and straw, fencing, housing, grain and feed for all of the animals that come into our care. Rescue comes in many forms – sometimes it’s an ill elderly owner who can no longer manage a large llama. Or someone who just isn’t able to provide good shelter for their goat. Or someone who is afraid the feral cat they are feeding in town will not make it through the winter. Our job isn’t to judge the person. Our job is to get the animal what it needs to be healthy and thrive. We are grateful for the support of our extended community and those who believe in what we do!!
