New Richmond Alpaca Shop

New Richmond Alpaca Farm, located in New Richmond, Ohio, sits atop one of the gentle, rolling hills of Southwestern Ohio along the Ohio River. The family owned, 175 year old farm, just 23 miles east of Cincinnati metro, has recently been converted to accommodate, like its hills, one of the gentlest animals on earth, the alpaca. Because an alpaca’s coat does not have natural oils, its fleece is less likely to have the characteristic ” itchiness” of ordinary wool and is more likely to be hypo-allergenic. Its softness to the touch is the reason the feel of alpaca is often compared to the feel of cashmere. While most animal fibers are one color, alpacas produce fleece in an amazing range of 22 colors. Open Sundays 11-3.
