Why Alpacas??
Alpacas are amazing creatures, easy to care for and
gentle on the environment. They have soft, padded
feet that don't tear up pasture land. They use a
communal dung pile which is a breeze to clean up,
and alpacas don't tear down fences. They "hum"
softly rather than baa, maa, bray, or bawl. They
produce an abundance of fiber each year that is able
to be processed without harsh chemicals.

What do you do with Alpacas?
Alpacas are raised for their luxurious fiber. They
produce several pounds of soft, warm insulating
fiber which is shorn each year.
