Registered Huacaya Alpacas
A small, carefully tended herd of ARI-registered Huacaya alpacas — the fluffy, cloud-like breed known for fine crimped fiber. Their fleece finds a second life in Caroline's Serenity Felting studio. None currently for sale.

More than just livestock

The farmers

Caroline & Dan

Connecticut transplants who traded the East Coast for the Oregon foothills and never looked back. They've been building Leaning Tree Farm since 2014 — one animal, one fence post, and one very good decision at a time.
