New animal
Aura
Tanglewood will be adding a new male, bred by Briar Run Alpacas, that will be co-owned with Good Time Ridge Alpacas. We are excited about this new addition to our growing herd, as we are sure this boy will become one of our top herdsires as he matures. Mercury will be spending the remainder of this year at Good Time Ridge Alpacas and will alternate with residence at Tanglewood. We have also added several stunning young males from Briar Run, who will be starting their breeding careers this spring. Check out the lovely grey, Lord Belamy,and the ever so sweet Aura.
Creating better and better fiber is the goal of Tanglewood Farm, and we are getting there, steadily, by consistently improved animals at our farm. During the next few weeks we will be cleaning the fleeces that were shorn this year, washing them, dyeing into extraordinary colors, picking the fiber, carding it into lovely bats, and spin some of them into fabulous yarns. These yarns will then be used to create one-of-a-kind products that we sell at our store, The Top Knot, and at some farmer's markets.
