Welcome to Tejas Alpacas
Tejas (ta'-has) The early Caddoan Indian word for 'friend' or 'allies'. The early Spanish explorers found the East Texas Indians to be their friends. The lands became known as the land of Tejas and when Texas became a state, 'friendship' became the Texas motto.
In 2004, I began looking for a supplemental income for retirement that would involve my love of the rural life and animals. I found the most amazing creatures called alpacas. These wonderful animals gave me a peaceful feeling, with unique personalities. They also helped me in my other great passion – gardening.
Now that I have retired from the corporate world, I am catching up on all the things I haven't had time to do. Lots of fiber to get my hands into and process. I am continuously learning more about the versatility of their fiber.
After 22 years with these wonderful creatures and some health issues the last 3 years, I am retiring, with my last few breeding quality alpacas to sell. The rest will stay with me for life, providing me with more fiber.
Sorry, but no general public visits.
