Fleece, fiber and more from new Farmington alpaca farm

LIVERMORE FALLS ADVERTISER • September 1, 2022

There is a new alpaca farm in town that offers products to buy, farm tours and camping opportunities. David and Janice Ciszkowski and their daughter moved from Massachusetts to Farmington about two years ago, Janice said. First the alpacas were used primarily for education with 4-H members. Now it is a fiber farm – no meat sales or breeding. The farm name, Happy Snowman Alpaca Farm, was agreed upon by her husband and daughter, Janice said. “I have collected snowmen from the beginning of time, love them,” she said. “Alpacas like the cold, it is a visual people can remember.”
