Hi! We are Tim and Beth Sheets, the owners
of Heritage Farm Suri Alpacas. Our alpaca farm was founded in October 2003 with the
purchase of our first suri alpaca, Eliza. Since then, we have seen
our herd grow to 15 with the purchase of 7 more and the birth
of 8 on our farm.
Both of us grew up on farms and
pursued professional careers after graduating from college in the
early 80's. We lived in Indianapolis for a number of years but
longed for a country lifestyle. In the late 90's we had an
opportunity to move to the central Indiana farm where Beth was
raised. While this was very inviting from a lifestyle point of view,
realistically, we needed to discover a means of justifyng our
lifestyle change. In other words, we wanted to do something
productive with this farm we were blessed with. Tim
researched a number of livestock possibilities, from hereford cattle
to boer goats to rare breeds. While all of these are wonderful
animals, we discovered that none of them had the profit potential of
alpacas. The next step was to visit several farms, attend some
shows and talk to a lot of alpaca people. After all research
was done, we were convinced. Alpacas were for us!
Even though we started our farm after our
two kids were attending college, both our daughter Jennifer and son
Michael have been active participants in our venture. They
attend shows and events to help groom the alpacas and answer
questions. Michael is a great at building fences and general
maintenance around the farm. Jennifer started vet school
in 2006 so we're hoping for an expert health care provider in the
family. Even Beth's mother, Nelda, is involved. She
enjoys all of the alpacas and has taken some of them to schools and
nursing homes to provide a bit of joy and comfort to the young and
old. Alpacas are really a family affair at Heritage
farm. 
Now that you know a little about us, we would
like to share our excitement about alpacas with your and help
you get started in the alpaca business. You can be assured
that Heritage Farm Suri Alpacas provides great
customer support along with the quality suri alpacas we
sell - a combination that can't be beat!
Through our commitment,
experience, and expertise Heritage Farm Suri
Alpacas wants to established a business relationship
with you that will last a lifetime!
