Alpacas in Pennsylvania
Welcome to Sugar Hollow Farm Alpacas, LLC and our alpacas in Pennsylvania! We are a small family run alpaca farm located in Waynesboro, PA offering huacaya alpacas and alpaca fiber products, both handmade and manufactured, for sale.
Sugar Hollow breeds for yarn. Our alpacas are high quality, top notch animals with beautiful fleece, excellent conformation, and easy going personalities. You’ll find plenty of density, crimp and fineness here – take a look at Matoskah’s skin biopsy results – Ian Watt of Alpaca Consulting places him in the top four of animals he’s tested for fineness and density. But in the end, we have decided that our goal is to produce the softest, brightest yarn we can, rather than win ribbons in the show ring.
Come see Kathy’s hand-woven shawls & scarves, hand-knitted baby booties, warm socks, hats, stuffed animals, and dolls – all made of alpaca fiber – at our farm store and at craft fairs in the South Central Pennsylvania area. As our herd grows, so does our stock of home grown yarn (we can tell you which animal it comes from), and we have plenty of commercially processed alpaca yarn for sale, too. Interested in getting into alpaca farming? Arrange with us to visit our farm and see what is meant by “living the alpaca lifestyle”!

Alpaca Farm NewsWe are pleased to announce the purchase of a new breeding female who will be joining our farm in late January 2022! VBA AMAF Nitza is a yearling with perfect confirmation and a bright shiny fleece that is both dense and uniform. She has won 5 first place ribbons and one color championship banner in her first year in the show ring! She will be bred in the fall of 2022 to AMAF The Thunder Rolls. He is a stellar male with 13 blue ribbons and 6 color championship banners since 2020. Adding Nitza and her Thunder Rolls offspring to our farm will continue to advance us toward our long term goals of diversified genetics and more uniform fleece production.

Featured Alpacas
Accoyo America Arywn will be joining Sugar Hollow Farm in the very near future. She is a very fine fleeced alpaca with remarkable uniformity and a 4" staple length. These are the characteristics on which we are improving our herd to produce very soft and high quality yarns. She is being bred to Snowmass Sub-Seven who is a 13 time banner winner in the show ring at 4 years of age. The addition of Arwyn and her cria by Sub-Seven enables us to further diversify our herd's genetics, improve the quality of our alpacas' fleece, and set us up for continued success into the future.
