Alpacas @ Triple Tree

Alpacas @ Triple Tree are alpaca breeders in Sheldon, Iowa, northwest Iowa near Sioux City. They have raised alpacas for more than ten years and follow alpaca association guidelines for routine health testing. Regular veterinary visits and monthly fiber quality assessments help maintain the herd’s health and fleece standards.

The Bechlers maintain a longstanding pasture-based herd with daily hands-on care and early socialization among family members, children, and other livestock. Their focus on sustainable pasture management with seasonal rotational grazing helps ensure animals enjoy a spacious and healthy environment. They participate in regional fairs to support agricultural education and share insight into alpaca care. Annual on-farm shearing days highlight their commitment to low-stress handling and education for local fiber communities. The alpaca fleece they offer is valued by local fiber artisans for its consistency and softness in handspun and woven textiles.
