Our story

A stud farm raised with care in the Catlins

Green Meadows Alpacas is a working stud farm on Waimahaka–Fortification Road, just outside Wyndham and a stone's throw from the beautiful Catlins coast. We breed and raise alpacas across a full spread of natural colours — from soft whites and warm fawns to deep browns and the rare blue-black suri.

Every animal here is known by name and handled with care, from halter-training the crias to selecting the fleece we send off for washing, carding and spinning. It's a small, hands-on operation — and we love sharing it.

Our herd

Every colour of the paddock

Alpacas naturally come in more colours than any other fibre-producing animal. Our herd shows off the full range — including our prized, hard-to-find blue-black suris.

Whites & light fawns

Bright, soft fleece that takes dye beautifully — a favourite for hand-knitters.

Fawns & browns

Warm, earthy tones ranging from light caramel through to rich chocolate.

Blue-black suris

Rare and striking — our suris carry lustrous, silky locks in deep blue-black.
