Where does the time go? Summer is all but over, kids are going back to school, and our alpacas have all moved to Oklahoma. Yes, sad but true . . . but only temporary! Our Virginia managers have had serious health issues, and we all decided it was advisable for them to address those issues and take care of their family first and foremost. We wish them all the best. We are keeping the Virginia property (Echo Valley) but will reopen it next year as a fiber-only alpaca ranch to house all types of fiber arts. Our new line of limited-edition yarns from our own animals (Natural Echoes TM) in their gorgeous natural colors will be available there and at our farm stores, Echo Valley Fruit & Fiber. In the meantime, if any of you need to contact us about breedings, alpacas for sale, and the like, you can reach us at the Oklahoma ranch!

Everyone has been asking what my wonderful Treehouse is like. You know, Treehouses are the "in" thing for relaxing and connecting to nature. We decided to post a few pictures so you could see what a creative space the Alpaca Treehouse has become for me!
