Welcome to Harvard Alpaca Ranch
Harvard Alpaca Ranch
Come meet the alpacas by scheduling a Farm Tour or shop for beautiful alpaca products in our Alpaca Shop! We are open Thursday through Sunday.
Harvard Alpaca Ranch is a working alpaca farm that currently maintains a herd of 34 alpacas. We offer farm tours and we have a retail shop full of luxurious alpaca products. We offer additional services such as professional shearing of alpacas and sheep, alpaca-assisted therapeutical activities, agisting (boarding), mentoring to new farms, farm rentals for special events, and unique opportunities to interact and learn about alpacas.
In additional to the herd of alpacas living on our Ranch, you will also find the Alpaca Shop, full of all types of beautiful alpaca products. Our products include yarn, socks, hats, scarves, gloves, and mittens, blankets, stuffed animals, and a variety of souvenirs from the Ranch. Can't make it to the shop, visit our Online Alpaca Shop.
We are located on 5.7 acres of beautiful farmland that was formerly a horse farm. Located at 58 Old Mill Road, we are easily accessible from Route 495 and Route 2 in the heart of apple country of Nashoba Valley. Our alpacas are fortunate to have large areas of pasture to graze and stretch their legs. We strive to make our farm earth-friendly and sustainable. Our farm is primarily powered by the sun, both through the solar panels on our roof and through the pasture grass we grow. We pride ourselves in providing our herd the highest quality facilities to ensure happy and healthy alpacas. Happy and healthy alpacas produce high quality fiber that we turn into first rate products.
The Ranch is open to visitors Thursday through Sunday, with farm tours being offered on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. When you arrive, please enter through the Alpaca Shop and check in with our staff.
Please leave your pets at home, but service animals are welcome. When bringing a service animal, please be aware that the alpacas may be quite nervous in its presence. The Ranch is predominantly handicapped accessible, although access in the paddocks can be challenging during ice and and snow and springtime mud season. Speaking of mud, we are a working farm so please wear sensible shoes!
