Visit our Farm
Take a step back in time and enjoy the historical setting of
Eagle Bend Alpaca Farm. The first and largest in the northern KY area,
Eagle Bend is home to alpacas of Peruvian, Bolivian, and Chilean heritage. Mingling with them will delight you, bring a sense of tranquility, and once you’ve touched them, you will experience the comfort factor of their beautiful, soft fleece.
Eagle Bend can accommodate those coming from out of town.
Our local bed & breakfast, Graves Inn B & B, provides an excellent place to spend the night!
Hospitality here is not an issue, as your convenience is our priority. Phase II encompassed the complete renovation of our existing tobacco barn which now is the main barn for housing our alpacas. Two new fields were opened in the fall of 2008. Phase III saw the opening of our Fiber Workshop, a facility designed to process our harvested fiber. We also conduct educational classes to teach spinning and knitting, and we provide finished products for the discerning shopper. Our yarns are the best in the area! A new equipment barn is under roof. Phase IV is completed with the opening of a large 3.6 acre field and a new run in shed. Phase V will involve the installation of water and electricity to all of the new areas.
Progress is occurring on a daily basis! 
Visiting is a wonderful opportunity for beginners to learn about the industry, to become acquainted with the alpaca, and to have one-on-one personal time for discussion, questions, and good conversation. We will do our best to walk and talk you through the entry level of alpaca ownership, as well as follow along with you once your decision is made.
