About Safehouse Farm Alpacas
Safehouse Farm Alpacas is a small family run farm located in Barrington, IL, nestled adjacent to the six hundred acre Lake County Cuba Marsh Preserve, amid vaulting century old oaks and giant elms. Our home dates from pre-Civil war times and an Underground Railroad tunnel runs from below the main house to the woods behind.
Once employed as a safe haven for escaping slaves, Public Enemy Number One Baby Face Nelson and his gang used the tunnel in the 1930s as a secret escape route to flee from G-Men. After Nelson’s demise, the FBI bricked up the openings and collapsed the tunnel. Hence the name “Safehouse Farm.”
Today, Safehouse Farm has been transformed into a secure haven for contented alpacas to graze freely on the rich pastures. Our uncompromising commitment to quality ensures that our alpacas produce the finest offspring and fleece possible.
All of our alpacas possess pedigrees from nationally and often internationally recognized bloodlines. Our moderate size ensures that each animal receives the individual attention necessary for a long and productive life. This commitment is reflected in our beautiful animals.
