We believe in a philosophy of life long learning. As that relates to our alpaca business, we are continually reading books, attending workshops, classes and seminars.

You can gain valuable information by attending the seminars offered at most alpaca shows as well as those offered elsewhere. There is an Alpaca Breeders Fiber School which offers classes on a host of subjects. Many farms offer day-long workshops you can participate in. The Alpacanation website is a good place to look for a schedule of upcoming alpaca events including shows and seminars.

There are a number of books available about the care of alpacas. This list is by no means exhaustive, but just a suggested start.
