We live on a small farm located in South Central Pennsylvania. I first explored raising alpacas as a wonderful source of spinning fiber. My passion is knitting and I own a yarn shop in York, PA called Uncommon Threads. Alpacas quickly became more than just a fiber related pursuit. These gentle animals enchant you from your first meeting. Starting with just 3 male animals to "get the feel" for it, alpacas got under our skin and into our hearts quickly.
It is not our goal or mission to be one of the largest farms or have the most animals. We hope to raise some of the finest quality animals, in a way that we can interact with each one on a daily basis. All the care is given by myself or my husband from feeding to shots to shearing. Alpacas are easy to care for and only require a few minutes of care each day, but it's easy to lose yourself just watching them. Let us answer any of your questions about these gentle animals. Please feel free to contact us at Alpacas@paintedspring.com if you have questions or would like to come by to take a closer look!
We'd love to have you visit! Please call for an appointment (717) 225-3941. Tours during the winter are conducted by appointment only, mainly on Saturdays and Sundays.
Directions to the farm: From York, go west on Rt. 30 past the York Airport (Thomasville). Take the second left after the airport onto Roth Church Road and go about 9/10 of a mile.
Thanks for stopping by Winter Tour and Store Hours come back again. . . Sat & Sun by appointment

It's pretty laid back here - enjoy a soak in the tub or a little massage.
