Indigo Alpaca Ranch

Indigo Alpaca Ranch alpacas in Brainerd, MN, are carefully raised in central Minnesota near Minneapolis. For more than ten years, Julie and Chris Berczyk have nurtured their herd through national alpaca registry health screenings and routine wellness exams. Every alpaca enjoys daily grazing on rotating pastures at sunrise and gentle handling that encourages a calm temperament. A balanced feeding program supports steady weight and fiber growth year-round, tailored to each animal’s needs.

The ranch’s approach to natural fiber harvesting upholds consistently high fleece quality and responsible land stewardship. Shelters are well-insulated for Minnesota winters and shaded areas offer relief in warmer months, with constant access to fresh water. Clients often note the Berczyks’ approachable manner and their openness about breeding goals. Local fiber artists praise the softness and color richness of the ranch’s fleeces for a wide range of projects.
