LOCAL FLAVOR

In the soft undulations of New York’s Hudson Valley, where meadows meet heritage, Alicia Adams Alpaca brings a cultivated warmth to the Discovery Land experience. Nestled just beyond the gates of Silo Ridge, her workshop evokes a quieter time, where things are still made with care. From the fleece of rare Suri alpacas raised on her family’s 80-acre farm, Alicia creates throws and capes that feel as if they were passed down through generations, woven in a palette that echoes the shifting tones of the landscape.

Each piece holds the hush of misted mornings and the richness of the valley’s bounty. Now featured among other regional artisans celebrated by Discovery communities, her work embodies the soul of place. Whether wrapped around the shoulders on a cool evening or draped across a chaise, these pieces elevate the everyday with tactile serenity. It is not just warmth. It is lineage, craftsmanship, and beauty that endures.
