The Alpaca Farm of La Tierruca

A Textile Livestock Farm with a Soul

Welcome to Alpacas de la Tierruca, a family farm located in the green Pasiegan valleys of Cantabria. Here, Pili and Paco, a couple of enthusiastic farmers, have created a magical space where alpaca breeding and textile craftsmanship merge in a unique symbiosis.

Our Origins

More than a decade ago, Pili and Paco decided to leave behind the urban life to embark on a new adventure in the countryside. Driven by their love for nature and animals, they embarked on the breeding of these fascinating Andean creatures, the alpacas. Since then, their passion for these soft and elegant camelids has been growing, becoming a true way of life.

Alpaca Fiber: The Gold of the Andes

Alpaca fiber, known as "the fiber of the gods" in its country of origin, Peru, is the heart of our farm. Every year, we carefully shear our alpacas to obtain this exceptional raw material, which we then transform into yarns, fabrics, and a wide range of handcrafted products.

Sustainable Craftsmanship

Our philosophy is based on sustainability and respect for the environment. We work in a craftsmanship manner, without using chemicals or dyes, to create garments and accessories that reflect the purity and warmth of alpaca fiber. Each of our products is a unique piece, made with love and dedication.

Unique Experiences

In addition to textile production, at Alpacas de la Tierruca we offer our visitors the opportunity to immerse themselves in the world of alpacas. Through guided tours, workshops, and courses, we invite them to get to know these fascinating animals up close, learn about their care, and discover the secrets of textile craftsmanship.

Animal Welfare and Rural Quality

Our commitment to animal welfare and sustainability has earned us the "Calidad Rural Valles Pasiegos" distinction, a certification that endorses our environmentally friendly practices and the care of our animals.

Welcome to Alpacas de la Tierruca, a corner of peace and creativity, where alpaca fiber comes to life through our hands and our hearts.
