We are a small farm located on Maryland's beautiful Eastern Shore.
Our mission, like many others, is to breed for exceptional fiber and conformation. Our goal is to follow the best husbandry practices and to provide excellent customer service. Our vision is to one day be among the best breeders of Huacaya and Suri alpacas regardless of their country of origin.
Toward that end, we handle our alpacas daily, which allows us to assess their condition and adjust feeding and management decisions accordingly. It also helps to create alpacas that are easy to handle and a pleasure to be with.
After much research, farm visits, attending shows and seminars, we decided to stop talking about alpacas and get some of our own. We could not make up our minds whether to focus on Huacayas or Suris -- so we bought one of each.
We purchased our first pair of pregnant females in June 2006 and our first Suri cria was born September 3rd -- who unfortunately did not survive.
Since then we continue to grow through births on the farm and additional purchases. We had our first female cria in the Spring of 2009 and hope to continue with that trend.
We are eagerly looking forward to our journey down Alpaca Road and we hope you will join us.

| | Breeder Biography We are a small farm that focuses on raising alpacas with ultra fine fiber. Using fiber from our alpacas we handcraft items that are easy to wear and easy on the environment. When creating our products we allow the alpaca colors to flaunt their natural beauty rather than use harsh chemical dyes. We create all of our products at our farm and do not out source any of our merchandise. | | | | | | | |
