The AlpacaRosa

The AlpacaRosa is a family owned and operated 12 acre alpaca farm in Mogadore, Ohio. (less than 1 hour away from Cleveland Airport, only minutes away from Akron Canton Airport (CAK). We specialize in helping new folks get started in this profitable and rewarding industry. Our breeding program has been awarded over 60 championships while successfully creating alpaca bloodlines that hold their baby micron fleece well into their maturity. We've coined the term "lingering fineness" to identify this fleece characteristic. Let us help you FINE some beauties! Overlooked by most alpaca breeders and our AOBA judging system for years, "Lingering fineness" will eventually come to the forefront of most desirable alpaca traits in the world, as it so fundamentally adds years of profits from fleece sales, which is exactly the thing future fiber farmers will demand! One of the luring aspects for new folks entering our industry is the fact that we don't have to slaughter our livestock for income. We simply harvest their fleece, year in, year out. Premiums are paid for the very finest of fleeces. Since the alpaca fleece generally loses fineness with age, it becomes economic motivating to breed-in lingering fineness traits to maintain their higher profit yielding baby fleece fineness. This focus is what sets The AlpacaRosa apart from most other alpaca farms. For example, we own 16 year old Hemingway's Elise who maintains 19 micron baby fine fleece! You would be hard pressed to find another one in the country. But the key is understanding that these extreme fineness genetics exist, then breed them into your herd. As you browse our website, you will find that we offer a product line of AROSA custom designed tools to help make alpaca farming efficient! Also, you will view a selection of colorful alpacas on our farm. Our 50+ alpaca herd consists of both alpaca breeds, Huacaya (Wah-ki-uh) and Suri from Peruvian / Accoyo colored bloodlines. Huacaya fiber resembles a teddy bear puffy fleece, whereas, the Suri fiber resembles high luster curly dreadlocks. We love ALL the gorgeous colors the alpaca genetics have to offer our Amazing alpaca industry.
