AlpacaNation looks forward to releasing "Alpaca Business 101" in the summer of 2007. This will be a new section on AN that will provide browsers with answers to those commonly asked questions, and articles that will guide them in their early research of the alpaca industry.

We are pleased to announce that Andy and Ann Merriwether will be contributing selected articles to this section on AN, as well as within the upcoming "Alpaca Business 101" section. These articles are specifically geared toward introducing readers to the building blocks of the alpaca industry, and aid new breeders.
