Welcome to our little Paradise
S.A.M.Y.’s Alpaca Farm & Fibre Studio
is a family business located north of Strathroy in South Western Ontario, Canada. We enjoy spending time with these beautiful gentle animals and share our passion with our guests.We raise alpacas for their hair (fibre). Once a year we shear them and send the fibre to a mill which will process our fibre into yarns, felts, and bats. As soon as we get our processed fibre back, we create knitwear, felt products, and many other alpaca products in our studio.
Please note – we do not sell alpacas and do not eat alpacas either. At least half of our alpacas are rehomed or rescued and found their forever home.
You can support our farm and keep us going by coming out for a farm tour (includes an alpaca walk), an overnight farm stay, a fibre art workshop, Alpaca Picnic or purchasing alpaca fibre products in our gift shop or web store.What do we offer:
