Briarwood Acres

Briarwood Acres raises suri alpacas in Salem, Oregon, situated in the heart of the Willamette Valley wine country, about six miles from downtown Salem. Bob and Kolette Newman operate the farm, which focuses exclusively on the suri type — a fiber-producing alpaca prized for its long, lustrous fleece.

The farm holds memberships with several industry organizations, including the Suri Network, the Alpaca Owners Association, the Alpaca Association of Western Oregon, and the Suri Herd Improvement Program (SHIP), reflecting a commitment to breed standards and ongoing herd evaluation. A small group of llamas also calls the property home alongside the alpacas.

Briarwood Acres places a clear emphasis on fiber genetics, with animals in the herd carrying Accoyo bloodlines and EPD rankings that place select individuals in the top percentiles nationally for fleece weight and staple length. The farm has produced and worked with animals that have earned recognition at AOA National and Suri Network shows, and it operates a farm store offering alpaca fiber products on-site during farm events. Those looking for suri alpacas for sale in Oregon will find a program rooted in documented fiber data and traceable pedigrees.
