Our ranch, Alpaca on the Rocks, is located near the small town of Weed in northernmost California. Open for visitors on Saturdays and Sunday, we have 14 alpaca along with mini-donkeys and horses, a mini-mule, Icelandic sheep, assorted cats and dogs, and 3 Kune Kune pigs. You may not be familiar with alpaca fiber. It is very soft, warm, and hypoallergenic and so gives a special character to the whole range of standard apparel and accessories. We offer a sampling of hand-crafted alpaca products: scarves using traditional weaving methods like peg looms, knit hats in natural and hand-dyed colors, and related items such as original artwork. For those experienced in working with fiber we carry rovings, batts, and the raw fiber itself. We have tours to meet our animals, and experience the ranch life. And a final and impossible to miss addition to the sights and sounds for you to take home - the solitary 14,179 foot Mount Shasta presiding calmly over its domain.
We love to give tours so you can meet our animals!
