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.

New baby at Firwood Farm

We are “alpaca sitting” for some friends who are on vacation and also raise alpacas. Their dam was due when they would be gone so we set up our “maternity ward” and welcomed a new little girl today, July 2.

She is VERY cute (aren’t they all?) and was up and running around on wobbly legs just a few hours after she was born.

If you’d like to come and visit this little cutie, just call first to set up a time.

Congratulations to Danielle and Amelia whose names were drawn as Puyallup’s Meeker Days winners of our alpaca pocket bear drawing!

Amelia is from Puyallup and Danielle is from Illinois and was here visiting so her pocket bear will take a trip in the mail to Scott AFB in Illinois!

Congratulations and enjoy your pocket bears!!!

Alpaca Farm Days!

We are opening our farm to the public NEXT WEEKEND, June 6-7 for SPRING FARM DAYS. We will be open from 10 am – 4 pm each day.
You can meet our alpacas, feed them and learn more about these beautiful, intelligent animals from South America. Our farm is located at 8021 50th St E in SE Fife on the North side of the Puyallup River.
Our alpaca products store will also be open featuring items made from alpaca fiber such as yarn, rugs, hats, and even teddy bears!
The alpacas hope you’ll be able to stop by – they love extra grain!
