Olive Infinity Scarf
We've been working on this concept for a couple of years; perfecting designs, selecting special alpacas to participate, and ironing out details. After countless hours of preparing and perfecting, we have finally launched our own exclusive and entirely one-of-a-kind alpaca garments. So, what the heck does "one-of-a-kind" mean and how do we do it? Well, we start by identifying alpacas who possess exceptional density and fineness of fleece. This translates to a more luxurious feel of the finished p read more...

Tim and I at the winery
Reflecting back on our recent trip to meet up with our friends Gerald and Janette of Ariya Alpagas in Montreal and to attend their annual children's fundraiser. The event, sponsored by the Perrone groupe was held on the scenic grounds of the Domaine Les Brome winery and featured an exclusive auction and live entertainment by reknown Canadian artist Zachary Richard. We then travelled north to the region of Charlevoix to visit our friends Pat and Nathalie of Alpagas de Charlevoix. What beautifu read more...

Welcome Stop
A huge THANK YOU to all who made our 8th annual FurFest such a success!! Our theme this year was Wild West and boy was it fun. We think this was the best shearing festival of all; complete with many volunteers, big ole' Texas barbeque at the end, and who could forget the bull riding! All alpacas are healthy, stress-free and cool now for the summer sporting their new hair cuts. Pregnant mom's are nearing due dates in cool style. WOW. Thank you again to all, and see ya next year for our 9th annual read more...

What a winter we are having! With snow and/or ice every week, we are busy keeping critters happy, warm and dry. It's a challenge to say the least. If that's not a full time job in itself, we are also getting our spring show string ready for the start of show season in March. We have 6 registered and getting halter trained for Nationals first weekend in March, then we head up to Massachusetts for North American where the competition is fierce! For now, relax and enjoy some pictures around the far read more...
