Alpaca Fiber

The value of alpaca fleece is the economic basis of the future market for alpacas. An alpaca breeder with a small herd on small acreage can expect to harvest his animals' fiber and sell their offspring profitably.

Most alpaca ranchers readily sell their fleece for $2 to $6 an ounce to local artisans. Each animal on average will produce five to eight pounds of fleece a year.

Spring Farm Days!!!!

Watch your email for details about our Spring Farm Days.  We are tentatively looking at the first weekend of June and are praying that we’ll have a healthy little cria to show off!  (See the following post…)

In the meantime, you can still order our unique alpaca items on our website.  We can ship them USPS Priority Mail or you can stop by to pick up your order (and visit the alpacas)!

We look forward to seeing everyone later in the Spring!

Happy Valentine’s Day!

WhiteOutLove is in the air and a baby is on the way. White Out is due on April 22 and we are looking forward to welcoming a new little one!  Check our website blog for updates!

New yarn from Lucky

If you or someone you know is a fiber artist, you will love the yarn we just received made from  Lucky’s fiber.   It is FANTASTIC! We had the mill mix his beautiful fawn fiber with a dark brown for a “heathered” yarn that is one of our most popular.  We had some for sale last year and they sold out before our Fall Farm Days so if you are interested, contact us quickly before they are all gone!  We have lots of other colors to choose from including a rich black from Benny and PJ so contact us by phone at (253) 926-2582 or email:  FirwoodFarmAlpacas@comcast.net
