Greetings!
Big News: We Moved!—But Don’t Worry, the Alpacas Are Coming Too!
‘Tis the season for exciting news: we’re moving to a brand-new farm location! As bittersweet as it is to be saying goodbye to our old farm and first Western North Carolina home, we’re excited to announce that our new farm is a little bigger and a lot more developed. This move offers us the opportunity to start hosting events and even more fun ways to share the alpaca and llama love with all of you a lot sooner!
Our new place is still in Leicester, but a little closer to town. It has an event pavilion, a 2-br guest cottage, a pond, and several miles of established hiking trails. We look forward to sharing more about this amazing space with you over the coming months!

In the meantime, for anyone interested, the old property is now up for sale—it’s a beautiful spot with lots of potential for the right buyer. We’ve put so much love into this land over the last 3 years and would love for it to become home to someone who will continue to love it like we did. If know anyone who might be interested, send them the listing!

Made with Love: Alpaca Felted Dryer Balls & Coasters

Looking for a personable, unique and sustainable gift this holiday season? Our alpaca felted dryer balls and coasters are handcrafted from the soft, luxurious fiber of our very own herd—Ralph, Micah, Scully, Hotline, and Heartbreaker!
These eco-friendly products are not only functional but also a beautiful way to carry a little piece of our alpaca family into your home. The dryer balls reduce drying time and soften clothes naturally, while the coasters add a cozy, rustic touch to any table. Each one is a special reminder of the love and care that goes into everything we do on the farm!
That’s all for now. Thank you for being a part of our community. If you know anyone that might enjoy updates from our farm, forward them this message or send them directly to our newsletter signup link!
We can’t wait to welcome you to our new farm in the new year—stay tuned for upcoming events and, of course, alpaca cuddles! Wishing you a warm and fuzzy holiday season from our herd to yours!
