No sleep for me tonight, so while surfing, I was happy to discover this charming article full of Farmgirl anecdotes about raising and shearing the uber soft alpaca. Virginia’s Daily Press covered a shearing open house that, in addition to a big round of haircuts for the alpacas, featured weaving and spinning demonstrations. The open house was sponsored by three Virginia alpaca farms — Cornerstone Farm Alpacas, Woodland Trail Farm and Alpacas of Courthouse Pastures — home to more than 40 of the llama and alpaca cousins.

So happy that I found your blog! I am an Alpaca Farmgirl with over 50 alpacas living with us on our farm. Since I came from such a non-farm background, all things farm-y are fun and exciting to me. The alpacas have been my full-time business for 8 years and have allowed me to stay home with my 4 kids. I’m obsessed with alpacas and blog about them at http://www.alpacafarmgirl.blogspot.com! They ARE shear delight for sure.
