We were thrilled to receive these comments from a customer who bought two pillows from us at a Christmas fair in Autumn 2016. Back then we had started selling our alpaca pillows - this fair was the first we had taken them to after development and product trial.
It was in early in 2016 when we started to develop our flexible alpaca pillow and after much trial and error washing and cleaning the fleece during the development period we were finally ready to test the pillows with customers and friends in our local area. Our testers slept on the pillow for 3 months then filled in a detailed questionnaire so we could obtain feedback and refine the offer before launching.
Finally in the autumn we were able to sell to the public and the rest is history! We now sell online,also to our customers who come on walks during the Summer and also at our Christmas fairs . The only limitation is ensuring there’s enough washed Yew Tree fleece to make the pillows!
Thank you very much Jane for your lovely comments.
I was one of the first few customers to purchase the alpaca pillow from Yew Tree Alpaca’s show stand at Cressing temple near Braintree about 4 years ago, and I have to say I'm thrilled with the product.
If you are an allergy sufferer like me (or even if you 're not ) the fleece fibre is perfect for keeping those dust mites away!
Yew Tree have been extremely helpful in relaying knowledge of the product and are always happy to answer any questions. The pillows are super comfy and are still going strong using the guidelines provided by Penny at Yew Tree .
The alpaca pillow at Yew Tree is one I would always recommend and will continue to buy.
