Like this gorgeous bunny is the softest you’ve ever felt. It measures 11″ high, 8″ wide and 7″ deep. He has tan inside his ears and a black nose and eyes.
He’s the gift for that special person, and you can get it at the Stroka Gene-us Alpaca store online.
Supporting local Alpaca Farmers keeps the need for Alpaca Fiber strong. Did you know that alpaca items are ideal for people who are sensitive to other fibers? It is! And Alpaca fiber is warm, hypoallergenic and lightweight.
Knitters, spinners, and crochet enthusiasts will find our alpaca fiber comes in 22 colors, is easy to process and blends well with other types of fibers.
Alpaca fiber is three times warmer and ten times softer than wool.
Whether choosing to visit us in-person or online, our farm store is one of the easiest ways alpaca enthusiasts can own their own little piece of these docile creatures.

It’s that time again – time for the delicious taste of homegrown vegetables. The season begins with asparagus and it’s picked and ready for you to pick up at Schwab’s Farm Market, 9035 Rochester Road in Gasport.
While this is just the beginning of the fresh and homegrown produce that we enjoy in WNY, you had better not miss it. Asparagus comes on early in the spring but it won’t last forever.
According to some experts, it also has some amazing health benefits. Yes, they say that asparagus can detoxify our system, has anti-aging functions, is considered an aphrodisiac, can protect against cancer, reduces pain and inflammation, can prevent osteoporosis and osteoarthritis, and reduces the risk of heart disease. So what’s not to love? (I am not sure if the big blob of butter I usually put on my has any effect on these benefits, however.)
So head over to Schwab’s Farm Market and enjoy your WNY veggies while they are fresh. And don’t forget that Schwab’s accepts Food Stamps.

When I visited the farm store at A Stroka Gene-us Alpacas, 10314 Johnson Road in Middleport this weekend, I wanted to buy one of these adorable sweaters for kids – but I have none on my list!
There were a great selection of sweaters for little boys and girls in every color made from an alpaca blend so they are just as soft and warm as they are cute. Each one is different too – they have their own designs but they are all so cute, it’s hard to pick one that you like best.
And to my amazement, these amazing sweaters are only $22! How I wished I had someone to buy one for. I settled for some reversible mittens in teal and cream and some warm boot inserts and socks made from – of course – alpaca!
And if you use the coupon from Niagara Buzz’s coupon section for A Stroka Gene-us Alpacas, you can save 10% on your purchase. Nice.
