After having worked in the Canadian Banking Industry for some 35 years, I began looking into options that would fill my time upon retirement. I knew I wanted something that involved animals.

The question being is what do I want to raise?

After considering various types of livestock, Andrew and I finally decided that Alpacas were the way to go for us. They are relatively small and easy to manage, extremely clean, friendly and as cute as can be. I researched for months on various web sites, magazines etc and found what I wanted. The first animals I bought were 6 Dbl Reg'd females. They arrived at our farm on Indian Mountain, N.B. in May 2006. Shortly after that I bought 3 males from Ontario. Because of their bloodlines (Batido,
Guellermo, NGG Lionel, Casanova ), I figured these were the genetics I needed to improve my herd.

All of our Alpacas are Double Registered Canada/U.S.A.

In December 06 I bought a 35 acre farm and we packed up and moved to Fredericton Junction, N.B. to be closer to friends and family. This is where we now call home and we and all the critters are very content here and we look forward to growing and improving our herd.

Our mandate is to improve the quality of our herd by breeding to the best bloodlines with a view to producing the highest quality fleece and conformation possible. Considering our foundation stock, we are confident this will come about in the near future. Have a look at the Fibre Stats of our herd and we're confident you'll agree they rank right up there with the best.

Please feel free to drop by and check out not only our Alpacas, but the Pygmy Goats, our Guard Llama (Trooper), my brother's Angora Goats, Chickens, Ducks, Geese and whatever else that may find a new home here.

Just give us a call and Andrew or I will be more than happy to show you around.
