Alpaca training

We have been alpaca breeders since 2011, shearers and processors since 2014, and we take part in a number of international competitions; This has enabled us to gain a great deal of experience at all levels;

We love sharing our experience in such an unknown, innovative and challenging animal farming.

For that matter, we organize intensive half a day courses during which we are focussing on you and your questions.

  • If you want to start breeding professionally, we offer a half-day PRO course to give you the keys to understanding the world of the alpaca, to help you in your selection and breeding decisions;
