Big Timber Alpacas, LLC

Big Timber Alpacas, LLC alpaca breeders in Sherwood, OR, are nestled in Washington County and the Willamette Valley near Portland. They have been raising alpacas for several years and follow registry guidelines while working closely with veterinarians for routine health checks and genetic screening of their herd.

Their animals graze in generous pastures bordered by oak groves and rotate seasons between heated barns and open fields to maintain strong immune systems and fine, uniform fleece.

Kevin King and Sue King apply principles of conservation farming and often share fiber care insights at local fiber festivals and community gatherings. Visitors and long-term partners describe the farm as welcoming and educational, noting the Kings’ attentive approach to herd management and sustainable land stewardship. The Kings participate in regional alpaca association meetings to stay informed about breeding best practices and emerging health protocols.
