Our story

A little farm on the Owyhee River.

We're a small family operation in Homedale, Idaho, tucked between the river and the high desert. Our herd of alpacas spends their days in the pasture, and we spend ours turning what they give us into something useful.

Everything in our shop is made here — yarn from our fiber, soap from our goats' milk, candles from local beeswax. We make it slowly, in batches small enough to fit on the kitchen table, and we sell what's left at the Treasure Valley farmers markets.

No factories. No middlemen. Just goods we'd be proud to give as gifts — because most of them started that way.

Meet the alpacas

Every fleece, every skein of yarn — it all starts with one of these four.
