Fibre Festivals
We had a great year touring across the province to various towns and communities to share our love of everything alpaca. In 2022 we travelled to Johnstown, Peterborough, Fenelon Falls, Bracebridge, Barrie Kitchener. Many thanks to those that follow us along on our fibre travels - we love seeing you and chatting you when you stop by our booth! Special thanks to the organizers of these events - we appreciate everything you do! Planning for where we will stop in 2023 is already underway!
Stay Tuned.

Come from Near or Come from Away - Thank you!
Every year we open our farm to the public in ways to share our love of everything alpaca. Of course, The Crew LOVES people (and any oat treats they can sneak in as well) - oh and don't forget all the selfies. (They are a photogenic bunch). Many thanks to all who stop in, who come from near or come from away - it makes everything we do worthwhile!

Don't delay - we often sell out quickly.

Fibre Production Under Way
The Crew - Eat ~ Sleep ~ Poop ~ Grow Fibre
The Crew - Eat ~ Sleep ~ Poop ~ Grow Fibre
Alpacas are beautiful animals - who basically eat, sleep, poop and grow fibre (as we like to say), but their simple rituals produce some of the finest and softest fibre available in the world. Warmer than wool & definitely softer - this versatile fibre is used from yarns, to rovings, to felt and duvet batts throughout the year. Most of which we mill right here on the farm! As the miller ~ I'm getting exciting and can see how beautiful long some of their fibre is getting (and we still have about 8 months to go to shearing). So you just keep eating girls & boys and GROW THAT FIBRE!
