Description

DAFI - a rather silly sounding name. Those who are not too embarrassed, ask us "What does it mean? What does it stand for?" DAFI actually stands for Dorsey Animal and Fiber Industries. This full title does announce the scope and intentions of our endeavor. Dorsey of course refers to our family (Tilly, Kate and Lucas); Animal allows for the alpacas and any other livestock we might consider raising for profit on the farm; Fiber permits us to include the options of selling raw and blended fleeces and finished products. To us, however, Industry is the most telling word in the DAFI name. Not only does industry mean an "aggregate of manufacturing... any general business activity", it also means "assiduous activity at any work or task; diligence." At DAFI, we are constant in our efforts to breed alpacas with exceptional fiber and excellent conformation; we persevere in our efforts to improve each generation; we are diligent in our herd management and devoted to providing the best of care for all our alpacas; we are attentive to our clients needs and concerns. Ok, if we are so serious about breeding alpacas, why do we shorten our name to DAFI? Well, take a look at the alpacas. Be honest. They look like something from Dr. Seuss especially when they are shorn. They are cute, cuddly and silly looking. They brighten our lives and make us smile. DAFI somehow just seemed to fit the business.
