Long Acres Alpaca Farm is part of a group of alpaca farms known as Cumberland Valley Alpacas (CV Alpacas).  We started getting together out of our common interest of alpacas. We've stayed together because we really like each other's company and have found we have many common interests.  In general, the alpaca community has a tremendous number of interesting, educated people from incredibly diverse backgrounds.   For many, raising alpacas is a second career.  CV Alpacas includes members working in the science field, retail, medical, environmental, and business sectors.  Some are just starting families, others are sending children off to college or raising grandchildren.  Busy lifestyles but very rewarding ones.
