10 years ago, Pete saw a couple of alpacas at the New York State Farm Show. From that time, he was hooked. He went home and told his wife, Sue about them, but she didnt think that it was a good idea to spend ALOT of money on some animals....she hadn't seen them in person yet. 4 years ago, Pete convinced Sue to go and visit a couple of farms on National Alpaca Farm day. Once she saw them she was hooked. Two months later, Sue and Pete bought their first three Alpacas, and a month later, they brought them home. From then on it has been a Long, but exciting journey. We have enjoyed every minute of learning about the alpacas, and watching our herd grow. Recently we have started a 4-H club to get the youth in our area involved. The kids love the alpacas, and the joy that they get from working on them is something that we cherish, almost as much as our Alpacas. :)
