The fleece is as soft as cashmere and warmer than wool. For thousands of years, alpacas played a central role in the Incan culture in the Andean plateaus and mountains of South America and now alpacas are being recognized internationally. Alpacas are quiet, gentle, intelligent, easy to handle and disease resistant.
Alpacas are hardy animals that graze on grass and are easy on the land.
They are being successfully raised and enjoyed throughout North America and the financial returns from owning and breeding alpacas on a few acres can be exemplary. We have plenty of alpacas for everyone in Washington, Oregon and Idaho. We even have information about llamas. I love those crazy northwest alpaca association fleece and fiber. Washington's own northwest pacific alpaca Association.
