Linchris Alpaca Farm

Linchris Alpaca Farm raises alpacas in Columbus, IN, serving Bartholomew County and the Bloomington area. Owned by Linda Johnson, the farm follows registry standards and arranges annual health screenings to support herd well-being. With a commitment to gentle handling and pasture-based care, the herd enjoys open fields, structured socialization and regular hoof and dental checks. Linda Johnson’s experience includes fiber evaluation at regional fairs, and livestock-friendly fencing helps keep alpacas safe during seasonal changes.

The farm prides itself on offering transparent farm visits in a relaxed setting and a close-knit environment that reflects attentive stewardship. Their small herd size allows for personalized attention and supports the cultivation of fine, high-density fleece suited for textile projects. Set on a mixed-use property, the alpacas share space with native pastures and rotational grazing plots. Their schedule includes regular community outreach and adoption of sustainable feeding practices to maintain herd health.
