About Us
Meet The Owner; Julie
Hi! I’m Julie! The owner of Jolly Zee Alpacas! When I’m not herding alpacas, snuggling goats or bunnies or shovelling alpaca poop (hahaha) I’m a Professional Photographer and Professional Hair and Makeup Artist! I’ve been at it for 23 years! Give me a follow over at @juliebroadbentphotography
I have always had an obsession with alpacas! It started back in kindergarten and grew from there! I asked for an alpaca for my birthday and Christmas many times growing up! (my poor parents!)
Sadly, After losing my daughter 6 years ago, I started researching alpacas for therapy and what I needed to have to own one (or 11)
I would spend hours watching funny videos of alpacas and planning my dream of one day owning alpacas and sharing the joy and love I have for them with others who may be struggling with mental health or grieving, etc.
I was gifted my first two alpacas (Serena and Ginger) as part of my own grieving process and began bringing them to various hospitals, hospices and community me
In 2020 during the pandemic and while planning my wedding, I started visiting farms and looking for alpacas to attend my wedding! It was then that I instantly fell in love with Sharon and John from @alpacasfromeighthandmud and immediately started the process of purchasing alpacas! After the support of lots of loved ones, Jolly Zee Alpacas came to be!
I am so proud to be a “paca mama!”
