Our mission is to honor and
serve God in all that we do.
We
welcome you. Come to Crosswinds Farm where you too, can walk in the pastures
midst alpacas of highest quality and in a variety of colors and bloodlines.
Be prepared, while you're looking for confirmation and fiber
characteristics, you'll be the recipient of love, kisses and affection like
only an alpaca can give.

Tommy and I have always provided a foster
home for many different animals. Various species have passed through our
farm and have even settled in for the long haul. Many cats, kittens, dogs
and baby rabbits in need of mothering have graced our farm. Birds needing
attention like a Red Headed Pheasant, a Peacock and a pigeon (Yes, God
even sent us a pigeon). This has given us the opportunity to learn,
love, and care for God's creatures. We know that God loves animals, after
all he created them and us to take care of his creations. As always, we will
continue our daily nurture and care for our Alpacas. Besides, think of all
the love, gifts and blessings we would be missing if we didn't!
We were introduced to
alpacas a year before our purchase. We studied them as best we could,
becoming absorbed in all of the information that was presented to us.
Alpacas seemed to be a God send to us. As much as we love animals, to be
able to raise them, love them and make an excellent return on our
investment, not to mention the many tax incentives offered by the Government
for raising Alpacas, this appeared to be a sound investment for Tommy and I
to begin utilizing the 77 acre farm we had and the aptitudes for caring for
animals. We continued our prayers and asked for guidance from God. God knows
when you are ready to face new challenges and accomplish goals. Before we thought we were ready, God blessed us with
the opportunity to purchase part of an established Alpaca herd! All of the
sudden, we became "Alpaca Farmers"...
and of course everyone said "a what farmer?".

In
February, 2001, we purchased 5 pregnant females and 4 males. You might say,
we jumped in feet first. We certainly felt as though we did. We have been
off and running ever since. Crosswinds Farm now maintains
around 70 alpacas with sales and new births.
They say that having
animals add
years to our lives - we
know
this is true!
Saying that, we are
getting younger every day. God's blessings
according to Proverbs 3:9-10 are obvious in the offspring and their amazing
fiber at Crosswinds Farm Alpacas.
Alpaca farming is
hard work, yet extremely fulfilling. We are blessed with the opportunity to
serve as role models and mentors to the many youth organizations and
individuals in our area that are interested in farm life and raising
alpacas. Praise God we are true alpaca farmers, full time
having retired from life long careers as custom home builders and real
estate brokers. the pleasure and reward received from all of our babies in
the form of love, kisses and affection is priceless.
"God has blessed us beyond measure -
Our mission is to honor and serve God in all that we do.
Thank you and may God bless you and your family."
