Specialties
We raise and sell alpacas which also includes halter/lead training plus service after purchase. We have our alpacas sheared once a year, then use their fleece for various products like yarn, socks, gloves, hats, shawls, scarves, bird nesting balls and stars, felted ornaments, and more. We even have alpaca fur toys including finger puppets. These toys are imported from Peru and are handmade by women in the Andes Mountains.
History
Established in 2010.
We purchased our first 2 alpacas in Dec. 31, 2009 but had to leave them at their respective farms. By June of 2010, we brought 4 to Ellijay, GA to be taken care of by us. When we moved to Blairsville in October of 2011, we had 6 alpacas then purchased 3 more. We had 3 crias born in 2012, then 3 more in 2013, and finally 3 more on 2016. We now have 17 alpacas residing at our small farm. They are a joy to be around and provide us great stress relief when needed.
Meet the Business Owner: Jerome S.
My wife and I both own our business.
We first met alpacas when we visited a farm, then were inspired by their sweet disposition and gentle ways. At first we were not qualified to raise these animals, however, with the help of other alpaca owners and an alpaca manual we soon gained knowledge of their care and characteristics. Of course, the alpacas themselves taught us a great deal about how to handle them. We are excited by their intelligence and by their different 'pacanalities' as well as their antics!!
