Alpaca Fiber




Ever wonder what we do with all that fleece (fiber) from our alpacas? We have it spun into beautiful yarn! Here are some examples of how the fleece was turned into this beautiful yarn!
Did you know that there are 22 natural colors from alpacas?


The brown yarn is from our herdsire, Emanuel. Look at the beautiful luster & rich color! The fawn yarn is from our female alpaca, Gwyn who always produces beautiful yarn.
We have other colors available, go to our website for more!



Our New Farm Sign!





Jack & I just installed our new farm sign. The sign itself was a gift from a friend. We had the ironwork already & thought it complemented the sign.

Nap Time


Alpacas love to bask in the sun. Sometimes it can scare you when you see them in the field lying on their sides not moving! They just enjoy getting the sun on their bellies!

Herdsire Available for Breedings











Emanuel is an award-winning male soon to have his first cria on the ground this fall! Emanuel's conformation is correct with great presence & extreme leg coverage. His lock & luster are phenomenal. Produces huge amounts of fiber after each shearing creating beautiful suri yarn!

How Alpacas Bathe




These are a couple of captured moments of how an alpaca would groom themselves. They love to roll in the dirt! Usually when one rolls, then the others follow!
