Angel Hair Alpacas

Our annual shearing day! Our beautiful alpacas have been growing their luxurious fleece for a year and now it is time to shear it all off! It is the only day we clean our alpacas and get their fiber ready for processing into beautiful and useful clothing and garments. Come see the process, play with the alpacas on the farm. Note that our property is hilly. The area for shearing is relatively flat but sloped and may not be accessible for all visitors. Please no dogs at this event. Shearing is usually 9-11:30 and tours continue until 3pm. Light refreshments provided. Parking is around the corner at the Willard House and Clock Museum which is also open for tours or you can bring a picnic and sit on their beautiful lawn.

Elsie Kaye Artisan Gifts & Flamework Studio

Elsie Kaye Gift Shop &amp; Artisan Studio In 2009, on a whim, Holly Kenny took a flameworking class and learned to make glass beads. This sparked a love of glass art and led to the launch her business, Elsie Kaye Gift Shop and Art Studio in downtown Westborough. Holly currently teaches flameworking and metalworking at her studio and is on the faculty at the New England Craft Program in Williamsburg, MA. Holly loves the fluidity and movement of glass and enjoys incorporating metals, enamels and other elements that can change the texture and appearance of the glass. As a result, much of her work takes on an abstract, organic feel. Her work, under the name Elsie Kaye Glassworks, can be found at more than 50 boutiques and galleries across the country. Holly is passionate about promoting emerging local artists by selling their work at her retail shop, as well as helping to foster connections with new and existing businesses in the local area. She is an active member of her community, where she has lived with her husband and two children since 2006.
