About Us
About NJAC:
The New Jersey Alpaca Community (NJAC) had its beginnings in the fall of 2001 as a group of New Jersey alpaca breeders planned their first public educational event - Discover Alpacas. As the group planned for its 4th annual Discover Alpacas event the decision was made to become an official organization and in the fall of 2005 NJAC was incorporated as a 501(c)5 organization.
There are many alpaca farms in New Jersey, and many belong to NJAC. Education, Support, Friendship, and Fun are all things you will find at NJAC.
Mission Statement:
NJAC has a synergistic three-part mission statement:
