Become An Alpaca Fan and a Brookfarm Alpacas

Fiber and Yarn CSA Shareholder!

We are rolling out the New Year with a new program. So..... the big news, is that Brookfarm is now offering a 2010 fiber CSA in the form of purchases of shares as “I’m An Alpaca Fan”, which you can find on our Farm Store page. CSA, or community supported agriculture, is a way for city folks, or those not living the alpaca lifestyle, or any other farm lifestyle for that matter, to make a difference. Alpaca Fans -- lovers of alpacas and their luxurious fiber, fiber of the gods... spinners, knitters, crocheters, weavers, felters, fiber artists; whether whether living in Brookfarm’s backyard or across the country; support local agriculture by purchasing a Brookfarm CSA share.

One (1) Share of Brookfarm Alpacas 2010 Fiber and Yarn CSA provides a share of the 2010 alpaca fiber clip. There are other cool things that come along with this CSA, which you will learn about at our Farm Store page, but more importantly it is not about discount purchases, or finding a bargain.

It is about helping to support small farmers, seeing where the fiber comes from and how it is processed. It is about helping small farms, like Brookfarm, to continue to farm and provide their stock with loving care and quality feed, about being a part of the community and caring about what you wear and where it comes from. After all, we fiber artists don’t make socks because they are less expensive to knit. We all know we can buy socks for far less than our hand produced versions. We do it for the love of the process, the feel of the fiber, being proud to create....

By becoming An Alpaca Fan, you help to support the small-farm experience, and to be a part of it; all without shoveling the poop and heading out to the barn on a freezing morning, unless of course you really want to come out and do this. Then of course we welcome you!

What is a CSA, you may ask?  Just click on this link to learn.

Brookfarm produces the finest in alpaca fiber, roving, and yarn; all natural colors (black, white, shades of brown, silver grey and rose grey), no dyes, no chemicals, always in a smoke-free environment.

Our alpacas are lovingly cared for. They graze the beautiful wine-country pastures of Glen Ellen, California year-round and are supplemented with additional hay and feed as needed. Crias, baby alpacas, arrive throughout the year, and we are expecting 12 new additions in 2010.

2010 Shares are limited at this time!

Additional shares may be available in the near future or after May shearing.
