Alpacas in Oregon
Cascade Shadow Alpacas is a family-run farm located near
Salem, Oregon. We have been in the alpaca business since
2004, and love what we're doing! We raise both suri and huacaya
alpacas in Oregon, and specialize in blacks, with solid color, although
we also have brown and fawn.
We keep our herd size small enough that all the animals get individual attention daily from us, and even know their names, yet large enough to offer animals for sale to met the needs of all types of customers, in all price ranges. We offer animals for sale from pet quality to show qality, as well as breeding services. We also currently have some exquisite roving for sale, especially in black, and hope to also have yarn in the near future.
Because we spend so much time daily with our herd, we know each alpaca well, and can offer superior customer service by matching the right animals to the right owners. We also can provide mentoring at all stages, and follow-up help. Interest free financing is available to qualified buyers.
Our business practices emphasize developing long-term relationships with our customers. As such, honesty, integrity, and full disclosure of the history of each alpaca are essential to us. We are available by email or phone to answer all questions, and farm visits are welcomed. Also, we recommend checking our website often, as we continue to update it regularly.
Whether you are an established alpaca owner, or someone just interested
in learning more, we would love to have the privilege of getting
to know you, and share our enthusiasm for alpacas with you. We hope
you will contact us and come visit our beautiful and friendly herd
of alpacas in Oregon!

Getting Started With Alpacas
If you are learning about the alpaca industry and considering
raising alpacas for the first time, here are some suggestions
about getting started with alpacas.
- Visit our established and successful alpaca farm
for a tour of our operations. There's nothing like seeing
it for yourself. Note the fencing, shelter, and feed setup.
Ask to see fleeces and get your hands on the alpacas.
- If you have never lived on a farm or raised livestock,
you might want to get into the business slowly by purchasing
a couple of "pet" or "fiber quality"
males. Once you've experienced caring for them and if you
are still interested, then begin purchasing breeding quality
females.
- When you're ready to invest in your foundation herd of
breeding quality alpacas, consider making the extra investment
to buy females who are proven and bred. They are more expensive,
but it will pay off sooner with crias.
If you have questions or would like more information about
investing in alpacas and the possibility for profits, please
