MOHAVE COUNTY — Alpacas of the Southwest is hosting its 21st Annual Alpaca Farm Days on October 4–5 near Kingman on Blake Ranch Road. The event is free and open to the public, and will feature 28 alpacas that attendees can feed, pet, and take pictures with.

Children can visit the face-painting booth as well as the Arts & Craft Cabin to create an art project to take home—all supplies provided. No dogs permitted.
