We annually trek overseas to new places and bring our sense of adventure, energy and creativity to this vocation, as we did to our past career paths.

Integrity

Our original stock was largely purchased from the Gelbers of Bumble Hill, the Haslins from Elysion, and the Browns from Timbertop. The Gelbers have been great mentors in our desire to gain the excellent reputation which Julienne and Frank have for fair dealings and support of their clients as well as their alpacas during the more than a decade they have been in this industry.

All Suri alpacas for sale will be at least third generation. All animals sold will have no known genetic defects. Honesty is our top priority as a personal and business mission.

Professional - Reputation and Quality

  • We wish to be ‘well regarded’ in the Industry, as are our mentors.
  • We want to be proud of what we do and the only way to do this is to sell quality products and services.
  • We have both been educated professionals prior to our ‘seachange’ into Alpacas.
  • We bring with us a wealth of knowledge of business, management, animal care and training.

Approachable

Our friendly, personable approach and caring natures, ensure that we take great pleasure and pride in being able to help others, especially those new breeders to the industry. We treat every client as we would like to be treated.
