Roger, Collete, and Amanda Gage founded Emma’s Acres Alpacas in September of 2002. It began with Collete’s love for knitting and reading. In one of her knitting books there was information on alpaca fibers and their quality. Her interest was piqued, and she came to love working with alpaca fibers. Then after attending the Woodstock Fair the family met Emma the Alpaca, and the farm was born! Emma was the first Alpaca and today they have 20 Alpacas that they care for. They regularly attend the North American Alpaca show as well as the Big E Show. You will find them as well as some cute alpacas on October 19th at our Love-A-Pet event. Make sure to say hello and pet some alpacas.
