· Participants send their completed passports in and random drawings for prizes are done the 1st week of August.
Additionally, participants will receive a 10% discount on their yarn purchases at Maple View Farm during the event period. Shop the store, meet the alpacas (and hopefully a cria or 2) and see the fiber mill!
