Musk Ox Farm

The Musk Ox Farm is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the domestication of the musk ox, an Ice Age mammal that once roamed the earth alongside saber-tooth tigers and woolly mammoths, this once-endangered animal produces an annual harvest of qiviut (kiv'-ee-ute), one of the finest wool in the world. We welcome visitors to the farm for a close up experience of these magnificent Paleolithic ruminants with guided tours, engaging exhibits, a gift shop featuring some of the world's only gently hand-combed qiviut fiber, qiviut yarn, and qiviut garments. We also host community fundraising events and educational programming throughout the year. Visit our picturesque farm surrounded by the majestic Chugach and Talkeetna mountains! Our historic 1930s-era Colony farm is located just 45 miles north of Anchorage in the Matanuska Valley, the heart of Alaskan agriculture. We are open year-round!
