Pretty and Green, our exceptionally competent Komondor livestock guard dogs, are invaluable to us in raising our alpacas.
We researched alpaca ownership for over four years before we purchased our first alpacas. We attended conferences, clinics, shows, visited farms, read, read, joined AOBA. We knew just the animals we wanted and were very lucky to find exactly those animals. We have received wonderful support from the alpaca community and offer the same to all.
Alpacas are such delights - so very enchanting and lovable. And,the fabulous gift of fiber they give us!
Roy and Jean each have over 20 years of varying experience in the fiber processing industry - ranging from designing and erecting and operating processing equipment, purchasing raw fiber, engineer/design finished product, develope and oversee program of quality assurance of raw and finished products. Alpacas and our mill are the perfect fit for our interests and knowledge.
We started our mill the middle of May 2007.
We love to help others find the interesting lifestyle of raising alpacas and working with the exquisite fiber. See our "Service" mill page.

Colors of offspring sired by WWF STETSON are true black, maroon, dark brown, titian, medium brown, dark silver grey and dark rose grey. His offspring are showing very well, having won many awards-firsts, seconds,thirds at AOBA sponsored shows (several championships!). They possess the wonderfully healthy, strong boned, well muscled conformation and the beautifully soft, crimpy, dense, fine, lustrous fiber of their sire. We at WILLOW BRIDGE feel fortunate to have Stetson-and now AFF Basil-, our females Juliet, Joy, Sunshine Jo and Icy, and their offspring. We love to show them off! In 2004: fiber won 3 1st and one 2nd place of 4 entries in the GWAS show skein competition; two fleeces entered in the MidWest Alpaca Jamboree each won 1st, two Spin Off entries won 1st and one won 3rd; of the 4 separate class skein entries we entered in the OABA show, our farm won two 1 sts (including JUDGES' CHOICE) and two 2nds, in the HandCrafters' SpinOff, our 4 entries won first and Champion in the grey, and 3 other placements! In 2005: our farm won a 4th and 5th in halter full fleece and a 2nd in fleece at GMAF; our farm won one 1st and two 2nds at the GWAS fiber arts show; 3 1st and one 3rd at the IAOBA fiber show a 3rd and a 4th in halter classes. Some wins in 2006: of 6 entries in MOPACA HandCrafters' SpinOff we won 4 1sts and 2 3rds: IAOBA SpinOff of 4 entries we won 1 1st, 2 2nds and 1 3rd; GMAF Fleece 2nd, 4th Halter. We are meeting our goals!still winning in 08 and 09.
We are available to all who want information about alpacas and we are available to assist any alpaca owner in their alpaca venture.
We keep exploring new ways to produce exquisite alpaca fiber products in our mill made from the fiber of our own growing herd and of the North American alpaca industry.
We strive to produce strong, healthy, finely fibered animals and intend to do this for a very long time!

| | Breeder Biography
Willow Bridge Alpacas is our small, selective breeding farm in Mazomanie, WI. There is a small natural trout stream meandering through our bottom land with ancient willows, some of which have fallen over making bridges across the stream - thus the name of our farm! We cherish and protect our animals and their home. J+R
