Longwoods Alpaca Farm was a small family farm located in Cumberland, Maine, from April 2004 until July 2016, when the last of our livestock was sold. The farm sold in April 2017. The focus now is to help you figure out the best "pipelines" for your fiber while we fix up an old wooden powerboat that's big enough to live aboard.
Now, doing business as "Longwoods Alpacas" and based in Southwest Harbor, Maine, I continue to knit and weave using yarns made with our fiber, either at local mini-mills (NEWAIM, Aroostook, Sallie's Fen, or Still River) or through membership in a national cooperative, Natural Fiber Producers. In addition some leg, belly, chest fiber went to Ingrid's Handwoven Rugs or the New England Alpaca Fiber Pool.
My hand knits and handwovens are available for sale on this website, as well as at the Maine Alpaca Experience, Shadow Hill Farm, and Justa Alpaca Farm. Wholesale accounts are welcome if you have a retail outlet and are looking to sell quality goods handcrafted in Maine.
