Where To Buy Silkworms in Australia

Are you a teacher looking for silkworms, cocoons and mulberry leaves to show to your class? Perhaps you teach textiles and would like to show your students where silk comes from …The easiest step is to find someone with mulberry trees, the natural habitat and diet of the silkworm. This is not as easy as it used to be, but it is the best. :-)

In Australia there aren’t many choices but as I find more locations I will add them to this page.

    1. Hi Ailsa, thanks for dropping by!

      I have a page on this website linked in the top Menu bar called “Silkworms”.

      Here’s the link – click here >>

      I’m not sure what country you’re in, and I hope this page might help.

      If not, a Google search might find someone selling silkworms in your country.

      Best of luck,
      Teena!
