Alpaga La Toison D'Or

Alpaga La Toison D’Or is a family-run alpaca farm in Racine, QC, situated in the rolling fields of the Estrie region near Sherbrooke. Owner Lucie Levasseur has devoted years to selective breeding and aligns her practices with national alpaca welfare guidelines, ensuring routine health screenings for fiber quality, dental care, and parasite control. The alpacas graze on rotational pastures through spring and summer, move to insulated barns in colder months, and receive daily interactions designed to foster calm temperaments and confident handling.

The operation emphasizes sustainable land stewardship and natural fiber production, resulting in fleeces that regularly earn praise from local handspinners for uniform density and softness. Several animals have gained recognition at regional fiber shows for their fleece luster and consistency, reflecting careful nutritional planning and ongoing herd health monitoring. Visitors note the gentle nature of the alpacas and the welcoming atmosphere evident throughout the property.
