Andrea Gade

Andrea Gade breeds alpacas in Stevens Point, Wisconsin, in central Wisconsin near Wausau. With over a decade of dedication, she follows alpaca council guidelines and arranges annual veterinary exams, vaccination schedules, and fleece evaluations. Herd health is supported by rotational grazing on mixed grass pastures and a diet supplemented with locally sourced minerals.

Cria receive daily gentle handling from birth to encourage socialization, and animals inhabit a sheltered barnyard that opens to wide fields. Fleece from each shearing is evaluated for micron diameter and luster, with select batches going to area fiber artists and small-batch yarn producers. Prospective owners note clear lineage documentation and consistent updates on animal welfare, reflecting a commitment to transparency and sustainable husbandry. The farm participates in regional fiber fairs and shares breeding insights through workshops at neighboring educational centers. Workshops cover pasture management, fostering a deeper understanding of alpaca care.
