Wool
What about alpaca wool? See below.


Alpaca wool


Every spring we shear our alpacas. This is not harmful to them in any way; in fact, if alpacas keep their wool during the summer it can be incredibly damaging, as it's similar to wearing a winter coat in the summertime. 
​
In addition to this, alpaca wool is a popular material for clothing such as sweaters and scarves. An alpaca's wool is softest when they're babies! 

We love when people join us for our yearly shearing event! The exact date will show up here:
