Well to us that means that we “buy” your fleeces and issue you a credit certificate that is good for anything our ranch produces.
What are some of the things we produce?
·Processing of fiber into rovings & batts, felt & yarn (Fiber Mill)
·Finished yarn, felt and rovings/batts that are for sale
·Finished alpaca products like socks, hats, scarves, seat cushions, saddle pads, earbands, blankets, pet things etc.
· Alpaca Sales, Fiber animals or Herdsires breeding
·Alpaca Pasture Boardin
I think you are getting the picture… credit for anything the ranch produces!
How much credit can I get for my fleeces?
We are paying $6.00/lb for firsts and $0.75/lb for seconds and thirds.Bags would have to be weighed here on the ranch and then a credit certificate will be mailed or emailed back to you.So the amount of credit you can receive depends on how much fleece you have sitting around just waiting to send in!
How do I label my fleece I am sending in?
Just go to our “Bag Tag” page and fill our form for the whole lump you are sending in…. You only need one tag per package that encompasses all the fiber in the package.We will weigh it and send you your credit certificate right away and you can start enjoying the things we produce!
Can I use the Ranch
Credit to completely pay for my purchases?
Unfortunately, No.We
allow ranch credit to be used up to 50% of the purchase of the processing
and/or products chosen.We have to limit
the amount paid by ranch credit because the power company is still refusing to
allow us to pay them in fiber… so we have to generate some cash to keep the
machines running!=)
