So...how does a registered nurse and an electrician who were born and bred in NYC grow up to be alpaca farmers? We discovered a new way of life. One so different - so new and exciting that we fell totally in love...again!

During a wonderful weekend in Sullivan County at a lovely B&B, we visited an alpaca farm near Bethel Woods - "down the road a piece" from the Woodstock Concert site. Ed spoke to the owner while I "shopped" at their luxurious products store.

We have learned that these curious animals get sheared once a year and produce better than cashmere fiber. Spinners and knitters as well as designers like Eileen Fisher have experienced this wonderful fleece and have found a myriad of ways to utilize it.

fleece that is hypoallergenic, warmer than wool and softer than cashmere; fiber for your family with eco-friendly products. products joining other natural fibers such as vegetable, bamboo, seed, leaf, fruit and stalk fibers for clothing, rugs, etc. by learning how you and your family can help our planet for generations to come. ... American ... Born and bred right here on our farms. are gentle animals. Simply fed with the best grain and hay. Bred with labors of love and they return to us a lifestyle of opportunities. can be experienced by visiting our farm. Please call for available times for you! You won’t be able to resist our newest cria! You'll fall in love!
