Dedicated to a Strong Alpaca Industry

Jul 02, 2020

For the past 20 years Robert and Hanne Quigley have maintained a “growing” alpaca business between Snow Road Station and Ompah, in North Frontenac.

The farming landscape has evolved and Silent Valley Alpaca has been able to change along with it. With the resurgence of homesteading, and the movement towards an environmentally greener and more sustainable lifestyle, alpacas are the perfect animals for the farm. Robert and Hanne have opened a 4 season Airbnb so that visitors might get a feel for what it’s like to live on an alpaca farm and spend time with these gentle, curious animals. Visitors can enjoy an authentic farm experience whill staying in the 3 bedroom cedar house.

The demand for alpaca fibre and alpaca products increases every year, and these full-time alpaca farmers are dedicated to a strong alpaca industry through their mentoring program, educational seminars such as Alpaca 101, & workshops on learning to nuno felt, weave, and knit, spin or crochet. Other activities on the farm include pre-arranged alpaca walks through the pastures. This farm is also part of the North Frontenac Back Roads Studio Tour and National Alpaca Farm Days, both functions take place September 26th & 27th 2020.

You can call to arrange a visit or come by chance. Spending time with a herd of alpacas can be a life changing experience, just ask Hanne and Robert.
