Merry Christmas to all our cherished family and friends! Larry and I have been reflecting deeply and listening to many voices in our community. We are excited to announce that we will continue operating our mill. Larry is busy with current orders and continues to accept new orders.
We shall continue to care for our beloved alpacas, sharing the incredible creations made from their fiber, and hosting events at the ranch. We will continue to own alpacas and llamas.
While I will soon be starting treatment for lymphoma, including chemotherapy every three weeks for a total of six treatments, we believe it’s essential to stay connected and engaged.
We will resume tours in April.
Our website will remain active, and we are happy to ship items or accommodate store visits by appointment! Thank you for your continued support; it means the world to us!

Looking for Alpacas?
We are seriously downsizing and have alpacas at prices that do not reflect their quality.
