Did you know that Dutch Hollow Acres started the Alpaca Fiber CSA movement? We have been offering CSA shares of our annual shearing for over 3 years now.
CSA or Community Supported Agriculture is often associated with farmers markets and food harvests but it also applies to natural fibers. Fiber farmers like Dutch Hollow Acres spend all year caring for and selectively breeding our fiber animals in anticipation of our annual shearing.
Last year we offered only raw fiber CSA shares which sold out quickly. This year with the addition of more animals to our heard we will be expanding our CSA shares to roving/batting and hand spun yarns.
The pricing is as follows
$75 – Raw– Alpaca prime blanket fleece (Beige or White only) This is a 1 time share and will be shipped out after the animals are sheared. The fleece will be skirted before shipping.
$125/$63 – Spinners – Quarterly (4x a year) shipments of alpaca or alpaca blended fiber ready to be spun. Colors and blends will change with each shipment throughout the year.
Full Share = 2lbs
Half Share = 1lbs
$150/$75 – Yarn – Quarterly (4x a year) shipments of alpaca or alpaca blended yarns handspun by me. Colors and blends will change with each shipment throughout the year.
Full Share = 2lbs
Half Share = 1lbs
