Knitting, weaving, felting . . . the textile arts begin with the raw materials of fiber. At our farm you can come nose to nose with sweet alpacas who produce incomparably soft and warm fleece.

Spinners find alpaca slips effortlessly through their fingers and becomes silky yarn. Knitters love the softness of their handcrafted alpaca garments. Textile artists and felters discover imaginative, beautiful, practical and often whimsical things to do with fiber. Our passion is for the alpacas and the fleece they produce. Natural fibers are eco-friendly, feel luxurious on your body and are good for your soul.
