Cria Candle Co was born out of our family’s love of the alpacas that live on our farm. Our first foray into the alpaca world came by way of a pair of alpaca that had not been properly cared for over an unknown number of years.
Conner is part of that first pair of alpaca we rescued. When he came to our farm, he had not been sheared in at least three years, had incredibly curled toe nails, as well as severe halter damage to his nose. Through the time he has been with us, we have worked on positive halter training, and built trust between shepherd and animal.
Conner is now one of our most friendly alpaca and is always ready for a treat. He is the alpaca to inspire us to want to give a happy home to as many neglected alpaca as we’re able.
Proceeds from each candle are contributed to Red Hill Fiber Mill & Alpaca Farm’s rescue efforts.
To date, we have rescued 6 alpaca from 4 different states. These alpaca are being rehabilitated and will live out their days on our farm.
