The Harvard Alpaca Ranch, located in beautiful Harvard, Massachusetts, was established in 2016 and specializes in high quality alpacas and natural fiber products.

Matthew and Amy Varrell, are the owners and operators of Harvard Alpaca Ranch.

The site reads: “As high school sweethearts, we began our journey together early in life and have been side by side ever since. We got married in 1991 and have two amazing grown sons, Nick and Rusty. Matt is an environmental biologist and Amy a registered nurse. After spending much of our lives living in Holliston, MA, raising our boys, we wondered what our next chapter would be. In 2015, after a couple of years of research and thoughtful consideration, we decided to take the plunge and move Harvard to pursue of dream of owning a working alpaca farm.

Harvard Alpaca Ranch is located on 5.7 acres of beautiful farmland that was formerly a horse farm. Located at 58 Old Mill Road, we are easily accessible from Route 495 and Route 2 in the heart of apple country of Nashoba Valley. Our alpacas our fortunate to have large areas of pasture to graze and stretch their legs. We strive to make our farm earth-friendly and sustainable. Our farm is completely powered by the sun, both through the solar panels on our roof and through the pasture grass we grow. We pride ourselves in providing our herd the highest quality facilities to ensure happy and healthy alpacas. Happy and healthy alpacas produce high quality fiber that we turn into first rate products.”
