Products

We have fiber products made from this herd. Nothing goes into a fiber pool. Everything  is processed at a mill that specializes in small batches.  We have roving for spinning, yarns for knitting or crocheting, one-of-a-kind Felties (copyrighted), rug yarn, hats, scarves, dryerballs and other unique products too. We are currently working with the same mill to create a soil amendment from the fiber scraps…stay tuned! Your plants will LOVE it!

 

With a herd of 19 alpacas, The Sanctuary always has Farm expenses that include daily feed, hay, fans, buckets, dishes. The Vet comes to give shots monthly.  In addition, all the alpacas regardless of fiber quality are sheared yearly for their own health.  This is because shearing keeps their skin healthy by preventing fungal or bacterial infections that easily grow and fester under long, matted unshorn hair.  Since alpacas do not sweat, removing the fiber before summer each year, helps their body stay cooler at night and prevents heat stress or death from overheating during the humid summer days too.  This is a necessary cost as well.  All donations help to cover the Alpacas daily care, vet expenses, well-being and fun-time with the herd.
