With your EAA membership and donation to the fiber project you are supporting the NYS fiber industry.  Additionally, you gain access to larger scale fiber processing with a return of a variety of yarn and finished products for your farm that are available to you at COST.  

We will accept fiber that comes in unskirted but there is a high percentage of loss when our sorters remove the unusable fiber and debris. Contamination (mold, moths, insects and heavy vegetable matter) is the number one reason otherwise perfectly processable fiber is rejected. Donations should only include prime and second cut from the alpaca that has not been contaminated.
