Farm Mission Statement:
Life is to enjoy and we enjoy it best raising alpacas! Our focus is on producing champions.
Farm Description:
Sierra Bonita is located in a high Mountain Valley of Central Utah. An hour South of Salt Lake City and 5000 ft above sea level, we are nestled on the foothills of Mt. Sierra Bonita. We specialize in producing the finest Suris and Huacayas in North America. With our foundation females and remarkable Herd Sires, we have done just that. We are grateful for everyone who has put their trust in our breeding program.
Sierra Bonita is the home of Peruvian MacGyver. This spectacular alpaca has been "Suri Herdsire of the Year" for 6 years in a row!
Our jobs are high stress jobs; James, is a therapist working with abused children and troubled families, and Leslie, is an Emergency Medical Technician. Needless to say, our lives are fairly stimulating. Alpacas, which could have been "just one more thing" have provided wonder, fun, relaxation, tax breaks, and friendship.
The Alpaca is said to be "a miracle from the Almighty". They really can change your life. They are a gentle, shy and submissive animal that cannot be forced or handled roughly. They require the owner to be calm, patient, and relaxed. Something Leslie and I really enjoy.
