In Memoriam
Patriot Alpacas Eternal Autumn. Autumn passed away unexpectedly in September of 2021. She was a real sweetheart and is greatly missed. She left us her cria, Summer Rain, who we expect will carry on her momma's tradition of love and friendliness.
Spudland's Duchess. Duchess passed away very unexpectedly in January of 2018. Duchess came with our second group of three alpacas that arrived in October of 2016. She was a beautiful white alpaca, that despite her rather large size, was gentle and sweet. She will be missed.
Tilly. We are sad to report that Tilly passed away in December of 2018. Tilly was our farm dog. We adopted Tilly back in November of 2008 and she moved to Harvard with us in 2015. She was a typical basset hound - rarely listened (unless food was involved), always thought she was in charge, and enjoyed rolling in stinky things. When the alpacas first arrived, she was quite skeptical, but she became accustomed to the herd and quickly became good friends with Jammer. Jammer would follow Tilly through the pasture, seemingly asking her to play...
