About Us

  • the barn at Crimson Moon Farm

    The Farm

    Crimson Moon Farm was started in the fall of 2015 when we bought this property and brought our alpacas from Colorado to Ohio. From there we have grown into a year-round multi-system farm providing eggs, poultry and fiber products to our members throughout central Ohio.

    We believe in working with the land and the animals to improve the quality of both. Healthy pastures make great places to raise happy, healthy animals.

    The alpacas

    Six of our alpacas came from the ranch we lived on in Colorado. There were over 100 alpacas right outside our back windows. We have raised another 3 which were born right here on our farm. They are shorn once per year and provide us with a wide variety of colors.
