We had our first encounter with alpacas in 2007 and the seed was planted! By spring of 2008, we had purchased our first alpacas, five bred females and two males. Our herd has grown considerably since then along with our knowledge and appreciation of all the benefits of these unique animals.
The entire family is very involved with the alpaca operation. Our four children, Dustin, Kaila, Ashley and Wyatt are the capable farm hands, whether it is helping with the shearing, sorting fiber, halter breaking or cleaning barns. Of course, the favorite time of year is when the babies are born!
Our breeding program is focused on color and we are proud to have some very unique and impressive bloodlines on our farm. Along with breeding high quality animals, we also have a farm store where we are able to showcase the many wonderful products produced from our alpaca fiber.
Raising alpacas has been a rewarding and enjoyable experience for our family. We have been fortunate to make some wonderful friends in the alpaca industry and continue to enjoy the many benefits of this business.
