Spent the morning at Sundrop Alpacas combining business and fun. Thank you to Stephanie Block for sharing your agri-business with our students! 🦙

We came for the alpacas (because who can resist those faces?) but stayed for the incredible convo around agri-business, finances, and the importance of having multiple revenue streams. It’s inspiring to see how thoughtful planning, creativity, and a deep love for the land can come together to create something sustainable and successful.

We got to feed and pet the alpacas and fell in love with their furry faces. Watch out... no joke, they spit.

Grateful for the insights, the fresh air, and the reminder that business can be rooted in joy, values, and community. 🌿
