Magical Farms would like to offer you a seminar of YOUR choice at no charge.
What's the catch? There isn't one.

At Magical Farms we truly believe that continuing education should not be affected by changes in the economy. To that end we are offering one free seminar of choice to every alpaca owner, new or established, in America.

Do you have bags of fleece that you don't know what to do with? Take a fiber arts seminar and learn how to make products that can generate revenue for you. Not sure how to choose the best herdsire for your breeding? Bring fleece samples and attend the "Optimizing Your Breeding Decisions" seminar. Learn tips on showing your animals in the ring from a seminar given by an AOBA Judge.

To take advantage of this peruse the listings below, select one that you would like to attend, fill out a registration form and in the "Questions and Comments" section insert "this is my free seminar". It is that simple.
