Smiling Moon Alpacas
Smiling Moon Alpacas raises alpacas in Friendship, NY, Allegany County and the Southern Tier near Olean. Christina Gaeta and Thomas Burch are members of the Alpaca Owners Association and follow routine health testing protocols including annual fleece evaluations and regular veterinary screenings.
The herd grazes on pastureland and enjoys daily handling to support socialization and a calm disposition among young crias and breeding stock. A focus on sustainable pasture management and natural fiber production has made their fleeces sought after by local artisans and fiber enthusiasts. Farm visitors often remark on the approachable nature of the animals and the well kept barns and paddocks that reflect the breeders’ dedication to animal welfare.
They also offer browsing opportunities for educational visits, allowing guests to learn about alpaca behavior and fiber processing firsthand. Regular shearing in spring ensures healthy growth cycles and superior fleece quality.
