Alpacas of York
Blending Beauty with History
|
Conveniently located in York County in South Central
Pennsylvania, near Harrisburg, Lancaster, Gettysburg and
Baltimore.
Rosenmiller Farm is a picturesque 35 acre farm situated on top of
Grantley Road hill with a beautiful panoramic view of York County.
The farm was established in 1835 and was originally 210 acres.
The original farm house is still standing. In the early days, the farm
was a dairy farm and later, a truck farm selling fruits and
vegetables and growing grain. In more recent years, the original
barn and half the pastures are home to horses.
In 2007, a new barn was constructed for the raising and breeding
of alpacas. From the moment we first toured an alpaca farm, we
were enchanted with these gentle animals. There is nothing more
heartwarming than to see alpacas frolicking in the pasture. These
wonderful animals are a delight to the senses and we would love
the opportunity to give you a tour of the farm and introduce you to
the world of alpacas. Our goal is to remain fairly small so we can
concentrate on the breeding and raising of quality alpacas with
regard to conformation, fleece and health.
