Forest Cove Alpacas

Forest Cove Alpacas breed alpacas in Chalk River, ON, serving Renfrew County near Ottawa. They are members of the Alpaca Owners Association, work with local vets for annual wellness exams, and use genetic screening to maintain a healthy lineage.

Their alpacas graze on rotating pastures enriched with native grasses, receive daily gentle handling from weaning onwards, and reside in shelters designed to reduce stress in all seasons. As a family-run farm led by Breanna Graham and Corinne Graham, they have grown from a starter herd into a reputation for fleece suitable for hand-spinners and small-scale mills.

The property features a well-ventilated barn with matted stalls, covered paddocks, and freeze-proof waterers to ensure livestock comfort year-round. Owners share knowledge of alpaca fiber processing, from shearing techniques to community workshops, supporting local artisans and sustainable craft practices. Their herd includes animals of varying ages and bloodlines, promoting genetic diversity and stable herd dynamics. Customers note the alpacas’ calm temperament and transparent breeding practices when visiting the farm.
