Alpacas in Montana
 Deb Hill and Don Sanfilippo, Owners of Cloud Dancer Alpacas in Montana
Welcome! We are Deb Hill and Don Sanfilippo, owners and chief barn cleaners at Cloud Dancer Alpacas in Lewistown, Montana. We've been raising alpacas since 1996 (see photo, left) and we still love it!
Like many, our alpaca story starts with our search for a business that would allow us to live a country lifestyle with a modest income. One day at our local county fair we discovered a lone alpaca in a pen with the llamas. We had no idea what it was, but we knew we were hooked. A few months later, we were in business and we have not looked back since. After raising alpacas on just five acres in Flagstaff, Arizona for 13 years, we headed for the greener pastures of central Montana. We and the alpacas now enjoy 95 acres near the Snowy Mountains of Lewistown. The winters are long and cold but the summers are spectacular, with plenty of grass for the alpacas. Cloud Dancer Alpacas is a working alpaca ranch. Here you can learn about all aspects of the industry: showing, breeding, and selling alpacas; shearing, working with fiber; and creating and selling homegrown alpaca fiber products. We will gladly share our experiences to help you build a successful alpaca business or hobby farm. You are welcome visit the ranch by appointment. Can't visit just yet?
