About Someday Farm Alpacas, and our goals…

 

Someday Farm is a small, family run farm.  Our mission is to raise superb alpacas with loving care and sound animal husbandry, showing them for their great conformations along with exquisite fiber and promote growth and development of the alpaca industry.

 

We have raised many animals for many years in the last several years have done much research around owning alpacas-we were impressed with their calm temperament and ease of care.  We visited many farms to understand the care and need, along with just wanting to see alpacas.  We read everything we could, attended shows and seminars, and discovered that these are charming animals.  We were convinced that raising alpacas would provide both a desirable lifestyle and a sound investment opportunity.

So, we started our venture with the purchase of two Haucaya males from Mariah Alpacas in Vermont; to see if we could fit them in here, and we liked the thought of a hands on approach to aid with the learning about this dynamic livestock.

Deciding this was the thing for us…we followed up with the purchase of two bred females from Sallie’s Fen Alpacas in Barrington.  And, found it to be true…they are addicting-we were fortunate to be able to acquire another bred female from Brae Lea Farm.  These are to be considered our foundation girls.

Our goal is to own some boys, and about 10 quality girls, selectively breeding them to the best quality males we can. 

We plan to breed haucaya alpacas for great confirmation, fleece quantity and quality (dense, fine, crimpy).  Some of our herd includes such notable names as Genghis Khan, Spring Snow (parentage of Schwartzkopf), Senator Taft, Peruvian King, Sinopsis Nocturna, Accoyo Caligula, and Powerball, K-2, Snowmass Legacy Gold, Royal Fawn, Adrianno, Silvio.  Pretty Good for starters…!

We plan to continue showing, breeding and learning about alpacas. 

We were not thinking of selling for a few years, but in 2006 did sell 10 animals!  We will have eight cria born in 2007 so call to visit them-

What does Someday Farm have for you:  We have alpaca products and rovings for sale (Please see the farm market), we have a great business plan we have put together to help folks out, we offer limited agistment (boarding), transportation in and around New Hampshire.  

We hope to have some farm events in the summer of 2005, and later have a room for spinning, weaving and other demonstrations along with some seminars-educating folks about Alpacas.  Folks interested in becoming alpaca owners or breeders come learn from our experiences and insights we have to share, and, perhaps watch them play, feel their fleece or just listen to them hum.
