| Patriot Alpacas philosphy First and foremost, our alpacas will be well cared for and healthy animals. Second, we will strive for alpacas that exhibit superior fiber in fineness, density, and coverage. Third, we will strive for genetic diversity in our breeding so that our foundation herd stock is not only healthy and correctly conformed, but will pass these traits onto their descendents for industry longevity. About us and our alpacas When I was considering a name for our alpaca business, I thought of many aspects of this new and exciting industry. As the goal is to establish North American products (animals, fiber, and finished goods) that are sought throughout the world for their fine fiber and quality, this requires owners to work together on a national level. I look forward to being part of this effort. Also, as a New Englander, I am often reminded of how many of the early American patriots were small farmers, trying to establish a new way. I think there are some parallels between our modern times and the earlier era, where small farmers can once again lead to a new way. We can focus on building peaceful futures that preserve our environment and fulfill us. We can bring products to a world market that are natural, necessary, of high quality, and desireable. At Patriot Alpacas, we are excited to be on this journey and hope you will consider joining us, as a customer or partner, and more importantly, friend. |
