Life is Better with Alpaca
Luxury at Your Fingertips
For the Fiber Artist
Life is Better with Alpaca
Butterfield Alpaca Ranch is nestled in the rolling hills of south central Nebraska near the Harlan County Reservoir. With a focus on the luxury fiber produced by these elegant and graceful animals, we raise both the Hucaya and Suri alpaca breeds. Alpaca fiber is known for being hypoallergenic, ultra warm, exquisitely soft, water repellent, stain resistant, and highly durable. We believe life is better with alpaca.
