Alpacas in Pennsylvania
Welcome to Sugar Hollow Farm Alpacas, LLC and our alpacas in Pennsylvania! We are a small family run, veteran owned 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 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. Our goal is to produce alpacas whose fleece will produce soft, bright yarn of the highest quality.
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 News
We have yarn! We recently picked up our order of Sugar Hollow Farm alpaca yarn from Blue Mountain Farm and Fiber Mill in Harrisburg, PA. This yarn from our 2021 shearing (mills are running 9 - 12 months behind) is quite lovely with silk mixed in some skeins to give unexpected bursts of color! It comes in many weights and is generally anywhere from 200 to 230 yards per skein. With this order we had some of our llama fleece made into yarn as well. The llama yarn is a bit heavier than our alpaca yarn and had merino wool added to help increase softness. A blanket or throw made from llama fleece will definitely keep you warm! If you knit or crochet, or know someone who does, come check it out!
Come visit us! The Holidays are behind us and things are a little less hectic but it's also the time of year when it's easy to get cabin fever. Need something to do to get out of the house? Give us call! If we're home, we're open! We don't charge for farm visits (unless your group is 10 or more people - then it is $3.00 per person) but we do encourage a stop in the farm store where you can pick up a memento from your visit (or some soft, warm alpaca socks!). Click here for our contact information.

Featured Alpacas
LAAF Starz Legend's Cleo is Sugar Hollow Farm's newest herdsire. He is the son of 2 time Futurity Champion Snowmass Starz Legend. Cleo enables us to take a giant leap toward our goals of breeding alpacas with superior quality fleece and increased genetic diversity. This past summer not only did he place 1st in his class at the Pennsylvania Alpaca Owners and Breeders Association Fleece Showcase, he was also the White Male Color Champion! If that sounds familiar it's because our 2 year old dam VBA AMAF Nitza (who was featured in this space last fall) was the White Female Color Champion at the same show! This is a breeding match made in heaven that should produce one stunning cria!
Cleo has begun his breeding career on our farm and we look forward to many years of producing cria's with outstanding fleece characteristics. If you're looking to up your breeding game consider Cleo. His introductory breeding fee is only $1,250 and remember Sugar Hollow's Care Package - if you purchase one full price breeding to a Sugar Hollow Herdsire, we offer you ½ price breedings to him for as long as he remains on our farm. Call us to set up a no obligation visit!
