IRIS LODGE ALPACAS, Jilliby (ECO Certified)

Iris Lodge Alpacas offer visits for breakfast or afternoon tea with their resident alpacas. It’s a great opportunity to experience life on a sustainable working farm. Since obtaining the property, the owners have planted over 12,000 trees and grasses so that wildlife can flourish, including the critically endangered swift parrot. Significant resources have gone into erosion control measures and protecting Jilliby Creek, that is part of the local water catchment.
