Erin Holtkamp & Greg Meuffels, llamas, Glencoe, MN, McLeod County in central Minnesota near Minneapolis. They follow best practices for breeding, maintaining detailed health records, coordinating routine veterinary exams and ensuring genetic diversity through careful pairing. Their pasture-based herd enjoys access to shaded shelters, monitored nutrition and daily gentle handling to promote calm temperaments and early socialization. As members of the International Llama and Alpaca Association, they stay current on husbandry research and participate in community education events.

Each year they join local fairs and workshops in the region to share insights on llama care and responsible breeding. Hailing from a longtime family farm, their llamas are raised with attention to hoof care, vaccination schedules and positive reinforcement training. Prospective owners note the approachable temperament and adaptability of these animals for pack outings, educational programs or as companions. Their crias are health-tested from the start and often find roles in small homesteads, therapy settings or show rings.
