25.01.2022 The gang here got pretty excited when we realised that Handmade Canberra is hosting the Spring Virtual Market this Saturday 26th #handmadevirtual Clifden Alpacas will be there!
25.01.2022 Just a boy with his bird.
25.01.2022 In today's The Age newspaper there is an article about using alpacas to find a cure for covid 19. I stand ready.... with my other alpaca friends here at Clifden. We offer ourselves up to scientific research. Love Archie the Black Alpaca
24.01.2022 Love these graphics, love the Handmade Winter Virtual Market July 11, 2020 and even more, love the fact that Clifden Alpacas will be there...virtually....once again. Love you too, Archie the Black Alpaca
24.01.2022 Shop online this Sunday 26th for your Mum....perhaps she'll knit for you, with gorgeous alpaca of course!
23.01.2022 Clifden Alpacas is proud to be a participant in this clever initiative and thrilled to know that @thecreatorscollectivemakersmarket supports Lifeline Gippsland
23.01.2022 So true! Take it from me, Archie the Black Alpaca.
22.01.2022 Check out what seems to be capturing most of the attention at Clifden at present. Currently there are 10 of them, with more to come. Gotta admit they are pretty cute and they are mostly black, if you don't count the middle bit.
21.01.2022 Think Art was trying to keep the beat!
20.01.2022 All that 'pivoting' is tiring! Just had to soak up a little Spring sunshine and think about the new product range. Stay tuned....thinking 'paca picnics, spring baking, spring markets and so much more. Definitely dreaming of the next Handmade Canberra market with its Spring theme #handmadevirtual Sept 26th love Archie
19.01.2022 Can you please turn your phone around slowly??? LOOK, I'm #pivoting just like all the business trendsetters in these #covid_19 times I'm slightly altering direction to meet the changing conditions and new season. Still starring in my very own #childrensbooks and producing fabulous black fleece and yarn BUT... think #springtime #springfair #springfare #springfling #springfever #springlove and #springfashion Of course all #handmade, alpaca themed and created to delight. Watch this space #roadmapcoming #archiealpaca #handmade #newdirection #alpaca #treatsandtreasuresforyou #handmadevirtual
19.01.2022 Check out these guys! There are actually enough of them on the farm to make a rugby team. Not all of them lined up for the photo but they sure can pack a scrum. The other alpacas and I might need to get in a bit of practice before we take them on.
18.01.2022 A repost of a favourite old photo but certainly apt for the International Day of the Girl Child! @InternationalDayoftheGirlChild
17.01.2022 Rain, hail or shine Mums are there!
16.01.2022 Just one week to go and I just can't wait. I'll be shopping from my home in the paddock. What about you??? Love Archie
16.01.2022 New hay feeder seems to be working well. BUT wait...it's Gabi!!!!
16.01.2022 Farm World - Lardner Park not happening this year (understandably) but still lots of ways to purchase an alpaca and share the love!
15.01.2022 Starting to get the feeling that everything we know and love is turning upside down?

15.01.2022 Feeling like life is moving on and you are not keeping up? With Xmas just 9 weeks from today, now's your chance to get ahead of the herd. Shop from home without the cranky queues and carparking hassles, and tick everyone off your shopping list before the end of November. Then let Aust Post take care of the deliveries for you. Better still - you will be purchasing genuine hand made products from Australian designers Handmade Canberra #handmadevirtual I'll be there - can't wai...t! How about you? Love Archie the Black Alpaca See more
14.01.2022 It's what we do! Every year we produce a stunning fleece that is warm without weight, soft and cozy without that 'prickle' factor and beautifully coloured without the need for chemical dyes. Talk about sustainable! We were that before it was a 'word'!
13.01.2022 Some mornings when the fog stays low over the valley it feels like we live on the side of a lake. The view is always changing! We love it. Makes us Clifden alpacas feel like we have a window to the world.
12.01.2022 Just practising for my next zoom session!
11.01.2022 Always wanted to attend the fantabulous Handmade Canberra??? NOW you can, right from home. And I'll be there too!!! Sooooo excited to be part of the Virtual Market. Can't wait.

09.01.2022 Teddy is 3 weeks old now and still pretty keen to stick with his mum but he'll be a great addition to my boys' gang here at Clifden. Looking forward to having him on the team. Love Archie
08.01.2022 4 days old and always keen to play with friends.
07.01.2022 Hey guys! Meet the latest addition to the Clifden herd. This is Teddy....appropriately named in these days of bear hunts etc but still in keeping with our theme of naming after black musicians and artists.
07.01.2022 The perfect bear for love, cuddles and the bear hunt project. Bring some joy to someone you know with pure alpaca. See our online shop for details.
06.01.2022 Nope. Sorry! we alpacas leave social distancing to you humans. You guys might need it right now but for alpacas like us we need our friends and mates with us at all times. We are very social beings.
06.01.2022 Best wishes from my family here at Clifden Farm in beautiful West Gippsland. Love Archie the Black Alpaca
06.01.2022 This one is just a cameo role for me, Archie. I'll let the scenery do the talking this time. Yarragon, West Gippsland turning on all its charm!

05.01.2022 Not running out of lockdown but I do have to get a wriggle on. It's 100 days to Xmas! Who knew? Love Archie the Black Alpaca
05.01.2022 Maybe you just think of me as the loveable fictional character in the Archie the Black Alpaca children's book series, but I am so much more than that. I'm the public face of the Clifden Alpacas herd and there's a bit of me in almost all our products.
04.01.2022 Too true! And of course the ultimate is something handknitted from black alpaca yarn. Love Archie the Black Alpaca PS I'm busy growing my own this season's fleece ready to be made into yarn
02.01.2022 I'm thinking reading in the Spring sunshine, picnics with 'pacas, Spring baking, scooter rides, and Spring surprises. What are you thinking? Head to our online shop www.clifden.com.au or Handmade Canberra Virtual Market September 26 #handmadevirtual Love Archie the Black Alpaca
02.01.2022 Pretty excited to see this picture featuring yarn made from my fleece - but that's so last season!! I'm really busy now growing more black fleece for the 2020 shearing. Just think what you could make from a little bit of me! See you shopping online from this Sunday Nov 1. Creators Collective is such a great initiative. Don't forget to use the code CREATORSCOLVIRTUAL to receive free standard postage on all orders over $20 from our site www.clifden.com.au Just a little xmas pressie from me, Archie the Black Alpaca xxxxx
02.01.2022 Meet Ferdi ...my mate and gentle giant. He is 10 years old now and still works hard on the farm pumping out a fabulous fleece each year, looking after the girls and their cria, acting as siren warden and generally acting as mentor to all the littlies. Not bad for an old guy! Bit past playing on our rugby team but even so. Perhaps we'll meet up at the trough later for a drink and a chat.
01.01.2022 Pick your favourite colour of the rainbow and keep your feet cozy and warm always. Australian made fabulous alpaca blend socks. Nothing better! @humphreylawsocks Buy online www. clifden.com.au
01.01.2022 So, we're a pretty quiet bunch of 'stay at homes'. What's happening at your place these days? Love Archie the Black Alpaca
01.01.2022 Caught me reading in isolation! Great book...you should check it out. Starring me, of course! Great for reading to kids and also for beginner readers. There are 2 in the series. Find them online at our website or if you can wait until 26th April, they will be part of our special online shopping experience #handmadevirtual The virtual version of the prestigious @handmadecanberra
