Summer Brook Valley Farm Hosts Young Adults

Five young adults with special needs from northern Connecticut visited Summer Brook Valley Farm on Friday, September 17, 2010.  Their teacher wanted them to see alpacas and llamas up close because she loves them herself. During their visit, they met one-month-old Chocolat; three-year-old Dante; Thunder, the llama; and Cocoa, the babydoll lamb. Chocolat displayed remarkable calmness when being removed from her mother and while being touched by so many strangers. All the visitors were delighted while experiencing the softness of alpacas, and the calm and friendly nature of all the animals.  One student loved being kissed by Thunder and Dante. They all said that they looked forward to coming back for another visit.
