Ambriel Acres Alpacas

In this blog, I'm going to talk about our alpaca farm, Ambriel Acres Alpacas. We are located in the Middle Tennessee Valley between Nashville and Chattanooga. We'll be essentially starting from the ground up so if you're thinking about starting your own alpaca business, this might be a good place to learn. If you're just curious, welcome aboard.

Fierce Weather

We had our first major storm of the spring today. Tornadoes touched down all over middle Tennessee along with high winds, hail, lightning and heavy rains. We dodged a bullet with only one casualty to a cedar tree due to the 100 mile per hour winds that roared through. I managed to take a few photos before going into our safe place and I captured what appears to be the formation of a tornado to the north of us looking toward Tullahoma/Manchester.





Here's the top half of a cedar tree that got blown off.


And in the bottom photo is the field that got flooded in just a matter of minutes due to the heavy rains.


All of the animals retreated to the barn to seek refuge and they are all okay!
