This is Crossed Arrows Alpaca & Fiber Mill with Brenda Wyler

On this episode I chatted with retired Army analyst turned Alpaca and Fibre Mill operator Brenda Wyler. Brenda has a great story, she spend year working for the military at the Pentagon and when he son was shipped out to Afghanistan. As a mother sending her son to war Brenda bought two alpacas to sooth her soul. Now she has over 70 on 100 acres in Duncan Oklahoma where he family is from.  Crossed Arrows Fiber Mill and Alpacas offers a unique agritourism adventure.
