Outback Alpacas
In Flushing, Michigan, Outback Alpacas stands out for a hands-on farm moment you can actually plan around a jar of local honey. The on-site shop in Flushing pairs local honey with alpaca fleece goodies, so you can grab a knit hat or a cozy scarf while you browse. Connie, the host, is a wealth of knowledge and a warm, welcoming presence, guiding visitors through feeding and gentle interactions with the alpacas, goats, and even chickens. The storefront carries hats, socks, and other alpaca fleece finds alongside the honey, making this stop a practical pick on any Michigan road trip. Buy directly at the retail store, linger in a space that feels lived-in, and come away with stories of the animals and a plan to return. This is the kind of family-friendly, animal-loving stop that stays with you long after you leave Flushing.
