Our people

Gene & Sharon

Gene and Sharon are more than just neighbors of Nature’s Curve; they’re part of the heart behind it. From the very beginning, they’ve been two of the biggest supporters, always showing up, lending a hand, and cheering every step of the journey on. Whether it’s helping where needed or simply being a steady presence, they’ve played a meaningful role in bringing this space to life.

Stella & Cameron

Stella and Cameron have become such a special part of the rhythm at Nature’s Curve. Stella, family to Jaime, brings that deep-rooted connection and care that shows up in everything she does. And Cameron, right alongside her, has jumped in with the same heart and willingness from day one.

From helping with the alpacas to tackling the random, behind-the-scenes farm tasks no one sees, they’ve both been constant, dependable hands. The kind of people who don’t just show up when it’s convenient, but who are all in, always ready to help, and always adding to the spirit of the farm.

Shannon

Shannon has been a trusted constant long before Nature's Curve ever came to life. Having worked closely with Jaime for years, she brings a level of loyalty and dedication that is truly one of a kind. She handles all the numbers behind the scenes, keeping everything organized and running smoothly in ways that make a bigger difference than most people realize. But Shannon's support doesn't stop there — wherever she's needed, whatever it takes, she shows up. She is the kind of person who has your back not because it's her job, but because that's simply who she is. Nature's Curve is better for having her in its corner.

Our Supporter
And more...

A special thank you to Mary Jo and Jerry Stein for being our on-site rescue team, for helping shape the land into what it is today, and for providing the hay that nourishes our alpacas.

To my siblings and family, thank you for standing beside this dream and encouraging me to grow into a better version of myself through your unconditional love and support.

Thank you to Terry and Anita Weiderhol, my alpaca mentors, who have shown what going above and beyond truly looks like when you have a deep passion and love for alpacas.

To the Forchione, Beckett, and Ferguson families — your willingness to lend a hand at a moment's notice has meant more than words can express.

And to my friends, near and far across this country, who have supported me, loved me, listened, and cheered me on — you are such an important part of this journey as well.

To my church family at Ethos Church and my small group, thank you for pointing me back to God's purpose time and time again. Through physical challenges, uncertainty, and moments of doubt, you reminded me that God's strength shows up most in our weakness. Your prayers, encouragement, and faith have carried me, helping me see that this dream was never mine alone, but part of a greater purpose He continues to unfold.

And to our partners who helped create, shape, and bring the vision of Nature's Curve to life — thank you for believing in something bigger and helping make it real.
