Cotton Creek Farms is a small, family owned and operated alpaca farm dedicated to bringing you high quality alpaca products with a purpose. What began as a passion for raising alpacas has grown into a commitment to creating high-quality, USA-made alpaca products.
We believe in a true farm to fashion approach, offering alpaca products made with fiber grown on American farms and processed through U.S. mills whenever possible. This allows us to maintain exceptional quality, support local production, and ensure transparency in how our products are made. Many of our items are proudly made in the USA and right on our Northern Michigan farm so we can offer a more thoughtful approach to materials and craftsmanship.
Our store is designed for safe and secure shopping, with quick order processing and free shipping to make the purchasing experience simple and convenient. Every order is handled with care and we take pride in providing personalized customer service. When you reach out, you are connecting with someone who raises alpaca, manufacturers the products, and is vested in creating an exceptional purchase experience.
Family Owned, Locally Sourced, and a Passion for Sustainability
