WELCOME ~
Rockyfield Farm is situated on 80
peaceful wooded acres of rolling hills in eastern Kansas. We are located
halfway between Topeka and Lawrence, not far off of I-70, and about an
hour from Kansas City.
Along
with our 4 daughters we are enjoying sharing our farm and lives with
these unusually peaceful and gentle animals. We find the care of alpacas
a welcome respite in a busy, preoccupied world. Yes, they really help to
restore the soul with their quiet humming and big dark eyes. And there
is nothing like watching energetic little crias, only a few days old,
running and jumping together in the sunshine…
Alpacas are intelligent, pastoral creatures that can be easily taught to
lead and are gentle enough for even children to handle safely. Our
alpacas are recipients of lots of hands-on loving care.
Having lived in the country our whole married life, we already knew we
loved the lifestyle. We've raised cattle in the past, have horses, but
wanted to find an animal that would be easy for girls to handle, and
that wouldn't require harming it to make a profit. After researching
extensively, we found the perfect answer for our family. It didn't take
long to fall in love with those fuzzy, big-eyed, funny humming
long-necks.

With my background in fine art I was drawn to their peaceful grace,
unique beauty, and luxurious fiber. My husband, with his degree in
agricultural business, saw the potential investment and tax advantages.
Our daughters just thought they were, well… “cute!”
We
have found the training methods of Marty McGee Bennett to work well for
us, which focus on building a relationship with our alpacas based on
these principles: kindness, respect, efficiency, and fun.
Every one of our alpacas comes from notable lineage. We have the
bloodlines of PPeruvian Vengador, 6Peruvian Accoyo Godfather, Peruvian Bueno, Peruvian Pizarro, PPeruvian Caligula, PPeruvian Elever, Peruvian
Hemingway, 4Peruvian Legacy, Peruvian Fabio, Peruvian Presidio, Peruvian
Donovan, Accoyo Peruvian Augusto, .... and more.
We would love to have you come visit our farm. Give us a call or email.
We truly enjoy sharing with others about these amazing animals!
