Farm Mission Statement:
Little Hummers Alpaca Farm was established in early 2004 by Shelia and Greg Andrews. Our mission is to produce alpacas of exceptional fiber quality and conformation. We help maintain a gentle disposition by treating our alpacas with respect using the CameliDYNAMICS philosophy when dealing with them on a day-to-day basis. We will continue to promote the alpaca industry and support others who wish to become involved with the alpaca lifestyle.
Farm Description:
Little Hummers Alpaca Farm officially began in early 2004. However, before purchasing our animals, both Shelia and Greg attended several alpaca "how-to" classes and learned all we could about alpacas in preparation for this adventure. After preparing for the eventual purchase of alpacas for over three years, in early 2007, we invested heavily in outstanding females for our breeding program. We are committed to producing the highest quality alpacas and improving fleece quality with every new generation, so we have bred up to outstanding males at each breeding to improve our alpaca genetics.
We have recently set up The Southeastern Camelid UniversityŽ as the vehicle we will use to put our alpaca training to work by presenting alpaca seminars for others interested in the alpaca lifestyle. These seminars will be presented by us here at Little Hummers Alpaca Farm as well as by specialists in various areas of the alpaca industry.
Farm visits are always welcomed. We love to talk to individuals or groups that are interested in the alpaca business or simply interested in seeing our alpacas. We want to make sure nobody misses an opportunity to see these lovable little animals, so the farm is open to the public each day and there is never any charge associated with a farm visit. Come share the experience!!!
