The official irrigation season won't start for another month or so which was starting to look like it might have to be pulled forward and then we had rain and hailstones so I would guess we are good for another two weeks or so. The weather is set to rain later this week so I am hoping to get some fertilizer down on Monday morning while the grass is dry so that it rolls to soil level off the grass then gets washed into the soil with the rain.



Today's Marketing Seminar went very well I thought and having started off quite cynically about the event I was pleasantly surprised...I was surprised how quickly the day flew by and just how much ground has to be covered when you are bringing people up what is really quite a steep learning curve. One area that is dear to my heart and because of time could only be touched on lightly was Internet marketing and while everyone in the alpaca industry agrees that a web site is essential knowing how to make a web site work for your alpaca farm is less well known. So I have decided to cover several aspects on web site design and optimisation over the next days.....I will cover all the usual stuff that happens on the farm and in the industry but each day will include a new topic on making your web site work for you.....each daily entry will probably be a summary of a larger article which I will post into the farm library.

So you will be able to read the summary in the blog and then click through to the larger article if it takes your interest. All feedback is as always most welcome.
