About the Farm

Background

Located in Littlestown, PA, this ranch is home to an adorable and high-quality herd of AOA registered alpacas. Known for breeding and raising alpacas for resale and their fantastic fleece, the ranch has become a beloved spot for both locals and visitors. The ranch also features an online Alpaca Gift Shop and offers various classes and tours to educate and engage the community.

Practices

Alpacas are shorn once a year, yielding roughly five to ten pounds of fiber that is minimally prepared before being spun into yarn or used to make felt. The fiber is extraordinarily strong, soft, and hypoallergenic, making it a preferred choice for those sensitive to wool. The ranch emphasizes the gentle nature and ease of care of alpacas, promoting them as a rewarding addition to any lifestyle.

The Rest

The ranch offers a range of prices to match most budgets and provides superior support and education to new breeders. Visitors can tour the ranch, shop at the on-site gift shop, or purchase products online. The ranch also highlights the potential tax advantages and regular income opportunities associated with raising alpacas. Classes and workshops are available to enhance the learning experience for all visitors.
