The Alpaca Shop
Welcome to The Alpaca Shop! Carol, Donna and Kathy’s love and respect for these beautiful animals has expanded from breeding and showing their award-winning Alpacas, to yarns and products showcasing the wonderful and unique benefits of this luxurious fibre. Once known as “The fibre of the gods” in Incan times, Alpaca was only worn by royalty. Today the ladies hope to enlighten their customers with all the benefits of choosing Alpaca. Alpaca is several times warmer than wool, has no lanolin and is deemed hypoallergenic. Many people who cannot wear wool can comfortably wear Alpaca. It has a wick-away property that prevents overheating, keeping the wearer at just the right temperature. 80% of the products we carry are produced from the fibre shorn off our own animals. Every animal on our farm has a value. Even as the animals age and their fibre is no longer able to be used in our yarns, we shift gears and use them to make all our felted products such as rugs, insoles and dryer balls. Nothing is ever wasted. We have even used left over fibre to insulate the walls in our barn. These magical creatures have been our passion for over 15 years and while Kathy McConnell is content to manage the daily needs of the animals themselves, Carol Saunders and Donna Simmonds have become the face of The Alpaca Shop. With the addition of our new farm store in 2020, we are excited to expand our product line. So if you are at the Saturday market, pop by and see what we are up to! Isn’t it time you discovered Alpaca?
