We are a small family run farm in Mansfield, Ohio and have been raising alpacas since 2002. We began in the alpaca business with five beautiful suris.
We have gathered lots of information along the way. In addition to our sales list of alpacas, we have provided many resources on our website for those thinking of raising alpacas and those already in the business. The Reading Room is full of great links and organized in an order that might be most helpful from Getting Started, to Herd Management, to The Firsts, to Branching Out, to Fine Tuning, and finally some Odds and Ends. There is also a great emphasis on alpaca fiber. The Fiber page has information that includes the history of Fiber Arts, to great books and favorite links on Spinning, Weaving, Dyeing, Felting, Knitting and Crocheting.
