Nuevo Mundo Alpaca

Nuevo Mundo Alpaca raises alpacas in Frankford, DE, Sussex County and the coastal region near Rehoboth Beach. The farm has provided alpaca care for over ten years, is registered with national breeding associations, and conducts regular fleece sampling for health markers. Each animal lives in pasture-based paddocks with daily handling to encourage calm temperaments and comfortable interactions.

Elizabeth Ferguson and Jose Palma are committed to sustainable practices, rotating grazing areas and using low-impact shelter designs to support both fiber quality and animal well-being. Their breeding selections focus on fleece density, temperament for small farm settings and conformation traits suited to hand spinners and breeders alike. Visitors often comment on the quiet pasture layout and the opportunity to see alpaca behavior up close during regular farm walks. While their herd includes a range of natural colors from white through deep brown, they maintain detailed records on lineage and fleece performance.
