Idaho Alpaca Breeder

It has been over 13 years since our lives took a 180 degree turn.

While living in Las Vegas, Nevada, I saw my first alpaca on the

Today Show and life hasn't been the same since!

Shortly thereafter, we purchased our first alpacas from Crystal

Mesa Alpaca Farm in Santa Fe, New Mexico.

In January of 1994 we brought our small little herd to their new

home in Las Vegas, Nevada. They were the first alpacas to be

brought into Vegas.

In 1995 we moved our family of nine and our growing herd of

alpacas to our current home in Caldwell, Idaho. Our Idaho Alpaca Farm is situated

25 miles West of Boise, Idaho. We bought raw acreage on a

lovely hillside in the country.

Here we have built our home, added fencing, erected a barn,

laid underground sprinklers and built our alpaca herd to where we

are today. The alpacas have flourished here in Idaho in the mild

climate. Through the years we have not only prospered financially,

but our circle of friends has expanded also.

Come join our circle and be introduced into the wonderful world

of alpaca ranching!
