Located just north of Memphis, Tennessee, Elderwood Farms is a family-run farm dedicated to raising exceptional Huacaya alpacas and a small collection of other beloved animals — including show-quality Pembroke Welsh Corgis. No matter the species, our mission is simple: happy, healthy animals and thoughtful, ethical breeding.
Our Story
Our alpaca journey began in 2013 with just a few animals, a lot of curiosity, and a love for the lifestyle. What started as a small hobby quickly grew into a thriving, full-scale program built on education, high-end genetics, fiber artistry, and a passion for continual improvement.
Today, Elderwood Farms proudly breeds, shows, and sells top-tier alpacas while producing a variety of fiber products from our herd’s luxurious fleece. We’re committed to staying active in the industry, supporting new owners, and contributing to the advancement of quality alpaca breeding in the U.S.
Our Herd & Breeding Program
We are home to one of the most diverse and decorated herdsire rows in the region, offering elite genetics from champion, banner-winning males. Whether you’re looking to elevate fleece quality, improve conformation, strengthen color production, or introduce rare and unique patterns, our boys deliver proven results.
Elderwood Farms is also proud to be:
-
Tennessee’s largest breeder of appaloosa, harlequin, and pinto alpacas, and
-
One of the largest spotted-color breeders in the broader Southwest region.
While we have a special love for spots, our foundation is built on exceptional solid-colored animals with strong pedigrees and show-winning backgrounds. Quality comes first — in every color.
