As with many who get into this business, we found that we were at a time in our lives where we wanted to slow life down a little bit, get away from the hustle and bustle and find our place in the country. We had NO IDEA that finding our 60 secluded acres would lead us to raising Alpacas....but it did, and we are very excited about it.
Before we decided to start raising Alpacas we visited many farms and attended shows. We decide early on that we preferred the fuzzy faced Huacaya breed over the Suri. With that in mind we continued our search for a pair of quality females to start our breeding program.
We eventually found our first two girls in Kentucky where they had come from Agassiz's Alpacas in Canada to be sold. Sonatina and Chardonnay were part of a group that Agassiz's had sent to the US for sale. Sonatina was bred in Canada before export and gave us our first male cria, Dreamweaver, who we think will make an excellent herdsire for our farm. You can read more about the girls and their cria on their individual pages.
Our goal is to continue to breed our girls to the best herdsires we can find and afford that will compliment their strengths and enhance their weaknesses and continue to raise the quality of our heard.
