We are now in our eIGHTteenth year of breeding and selling alpacas.
We thought the time was right now to open our Pre export Quarantine facility, to isolate alpacas for export to Europe, New Zealand, China, Taiwan, and all over the world.
We have found the alpaca industry, not only exciting, a great way to earn extra income, a fantastic lifestyle, we have made new friends all over Australia and the world.
We started off with two pregnant females and a male weanling, and now farm over 350 alpacas. We also offer education days, groups and private sessions, please enquire for more information.
It has given us a great lifestyle, travel, an extra income, and our farm is now employing both Rob, Raelene and their daughter Elyse.
Anyone thinking of farming alpacas, may ring up, and ask our friendly advice on ways to get started.
