Howell, Michigan
A large working alpaca ranch that also welcomes families for Animal Adventures, special events, and opportunities to experience alpacas beyond the pasture fence.
Ranch profile
Triple Diamonds Alpaca Ranch combines two sides of alpaca farming that do not always appear together. It maintains a substantial Huacaya breeding herd, while its Animal Adventures program and special events give families a reason to visit the Howell ranch even if they are not shopping for livestock.
That makes it a useful contrast to smaller breeding-only operations among alpaca farms around Michigan. Visitors come for the animals and events, while breeders can still find herdsires, females, males, and animals offered for sale.
Animal Adventures
Triple Diamonds hosts ranch visits by appointment and promotes family events throughout the year. The experience side of the business is separate enough that the ranch publishes a dedicated Animal Adventures contact number.
On the calendar
Triple Diamonds is advertising its 2026 Alpaca Day EXPO for Sunday, August 23 from noon to 6 p.m. The ranch describes a family festival with alpacas, crafters, vendors, and food trucks.
Large public days like this give people a different introduction to alpacas than a traditional livestock appointment. Instead of focusing on pedigrees and sale listings, the emphasis shifts to the animals, fiber culture, and spending time at the ranch.

The public side of Triple Diamonds does not replace the livestock business. The ranch maintains breeding females, males, herdsires, and a sizeable group of animals offered for sale. Its current AOA listing describes one of the larger high-quality herds in the Midwest and emphasizes its breeding program and range of colors.
For visitors, that means the alpacas are not simply part of an attraction. They belong to an active breeding operation with generations of herd development behind it.
