About Us

image49

Located in Lebanon, TN 



We are a small farm on purpose.  We believe the fiber is what is important.

Not the sale of alpacas. We had become empty nester's with acreage. Hubby was still traveling and involved in the corporate world.  I was looking for  a new routine that added value to our lives, not disrupt it.  We had been on the farm for many years, and wanted to make the most of our acreage without breaking the bank.  So the research began, and ALPACAS is what I found.  Once I heard that gentle humm-I was hooked!   Here was a critter, much like our indoor dogs & and cats that could share emotions, needed minimal care, open my creative mind and are earth friendly animals.  Alpacas created a pause of timwebcal://p40-caldav.icloud.com/pe and reduced stresses and triggers that exist in all our daily lives.

 I had been home raising children and managing a household.  I wasn't skilled to work outside the home.   I did not want to invest in any livestock requiring slaughter for profit.   My research taught us alpacas were earth friendly, non-agressive, trainable, and loving with personality . A way for me to have my own business at home, with no commute- a healthy, motivating, positive, creative environment. I became so passionate about the fiber we harvest each year. I expanded my skills - learning to spin, weave, felt, eco-print and dye various fibers.  This journey also provided avenues to be more socially  engaged and form new friendships.  

image51

We will  never forget what it was like to begin our journey with alpacas., We believe in mentoring and support-we want you to succeed in your journey! 


My spinning wheels & Saori loom are always ready to travel. Although it's great having your own source of alpaca fiber, I'll gladly share some of  mine and help teach you a few techniques I've learned along the way.   Studio and farm are open by appointment. Give us a call or email-

No they do not spit as much as their cousins, "Llamas".  Alpacas are very social livestock, with personalities similar to cats and communicate by softly humming with each other.  

 Baby alpacas are referred to as 

CRIA's
