A more focused aspect of alpaca ownership - an opportunity for your child's individual growth - caring for animals while developing personal responsibility, teamwork and leadership. Alpaca ownership can be a family project - safe enough for the very young to be involved, learning responsibility and family teamwork.
Hardy and easy to manage alpacas are not just a hobby. These soft-footed, eco-friendly creatures are easy on the pasture and produce high quality fertilizer as well. Check out the "alpaca lifestyle" by visiting our participating farms. We believe you will like what you see. A venture in itself - from the raw fiber at the time of shearing through the finished product. This may be as relatively simple as a spinner making yarn or as extensive as creating socks, hats, a variety of luxury wear, felted products, artwork and even heirlooms.
Sometimes this is referred to as "fiber to fashion". It is the process of adding value to the alpaca fleece.
Consider the options - direct revenues from alpaca and fiber sales; indirect revenues from the agricultural tax status and the lifestyle benefits of a small business; and secondary revenues from horizontal or vertical business integration. You don't need a fortune or a fancy facility to get started.



acaBuddies is a local group of like-minded Alpaca & Llama owners & breeders who have joined together and pooled resources to better share the experience with members of our community. Owning Alpacas and Llamas can be a business and there are many financial benefits, but it can also be a total lifestyle experience.
   As owners, our animals are more than just livestock. They have become an integral part of the everyday lives we lead. It is different for each of us, but through these animals, we experience them bringing our families and communities closer together. We regularly host events where you can come and meet several breeders and their animals at once.  
    Each breeder has something unique to offer. By visiting so many in one place, you can find that breeder shares your values and can give you a taste of the experience you are looking for.
   We're looking forward to meeting you at our next event or perhaps at the ranches.

 
 
Come on down and visit with the fiber animals... and experience the fiber they create!
