2014 First Cria Born!

Mocha and Cria Girl July 2014

Good Friday Morning!  This morning Mocha had a baby girl!  She is a pretty dark brown and as all cria's she is all legs!  This is the first of our cria for 2014, both Mom and baby are doing well.

Yesterday we had a group stop by the farm, they had stopped by to see the animals but to learn about what we do with our animals, our industry.  They learned about the different fibre goats, the Olde English Babydoll Southdown sheep and of course our Alpacas and Llamas.  They enjoyed seeing how the animal's fleece was made into different products.  The store was a great hit and buying socks and yarns from animals you just met makes it all a bit more special!

The store is open from 10-5 Thursday thru Sunday.  If you would like to have a group come for a tour the cost is $ 20.00 per person and you can come anytime during the week, we can discuss options and what you would like to see.  As always we are NOT a petting farm, but we do have a few VERY social representatives from each species who love the attention...we even have "Pretty" Hen!

The store has local beef and lamb from other farms, we have eggs, chicken and turkey's which we are taking orders for now.

To get in touch with us please call 705-778-2070 or you can email us at elmleaalpacas@gmail.com

See my legs, they are new!

Merry Christmas

Hello Everyone!

Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and are looking forward to the New Year!
I would like to first thank everyone for their support over 2013 and we look forward to growing in 2014!

The store hours for now will be by appointment or by chance, Thursday thru Sunday.  You can call the farm at
705-778-2070.

We still have fibre products, ranging from hats, to scarves, socks and insoles as well as yarns, wool and Alpaca and other blends.  I am finding people really appreciate the time and effort put into hand spun yarn and I will continue to create more!  Because the hand crafted stock in the store is hand made, it is always changing!  You can also visit us on the Esty Store under Elmlea Farm

We of course continue to have farm fresh eggs and there is assorted sausages as well as different types of burger ranging from beef to lamb to goat.

I will be in Maynooth on February 15, 2014 at the library and the time will be 10-4 pm. 

We are keeping a close watch on our girls...Alpacas, Goats and Sheep to see who might be pregnant. 

That's it for now! 

Continue to be safe over the holidays!  And Enjoy!
