Pleasant Prairie Suri Alpacas, Fashions And Farm

Pleasant Prairie Suri Alpacas, Fashions And Farm raises alpacas in Otis Orchards, WA, in Eastern Washington near Spokane. Verna Carpenter has guided the farm through more than a decade of breeding suri alpacas and maintains participation in national registry programs with routine health testing for all animals. Herd members are selected for dense fleece and gentle temperament, and daily pasture rotations and barn shelter ensure their well-being.

The farm blends a love of fiber arts with hands-on animal care, ensuring each cria receives socialization from birth. Visitors often note the relaxed atmosphere and focus on sustainable practices in pasture management and fiber processing. Small-group demonstrations showcase spinning and natural dyeing techniques using plant-based pigments. Seasonal farm tours offer a glimpse into breeding plans and alpaca behavior across different stages of life. Private appointments allow a close look at breeding stock and the quality of suri fleece produced on site.
