Island Art
Stone Sculptures.
These are the most wonderful stone lawn sculptures I've seen, while traveling the islands during the 9th annual Discover the Heart of the Islands: Open Farm and Studio Tour. These castles are built by Harry Barber, who was born in Switzerland and always had a strong fondness for the castles found throughout the country. He created miniature buildings from local Vermont field stone. He was a passionate gardener and groundskeeper, and often loved to enhance the look of his properties by constructing beautiful castles, fountains and stone walls made from local field stone.

Alpacas Munching Greens

Alpacas are so adorable while chewing. There are two kinds of alpacas. These are Huacaya alpacas, (pronounced Wuh-kai-ya). Huacayas are fluffy like teddy bears and Suris have long shiny locks like very soft, slightly curly hair. Alpacas are bred specifically for their fiber. High quality fleece from both species fetches top dollar on the international market. Some hand spinners like to spin alpaca fiber mixed with cotton, wool or Silk. Alpaca fiber is used for making knitted and woven items, similar to wool. These items include blankets, sweaters, hats, gloves, scarves, ponchos, sweaters, socks, coats, bedding, and a wide variety of textiles.
