Simmons Creek began several years ago as a twinkle in my eye. My husband, Geoff, and I were trying to come up with a way to make some extra money. We both love to create but didn't know exactly "what" we wanted to do. I had heard about Etsy and after discussing it, we decided that this was what we would do.

Our name came to us on a Sunday drive. We were throwing names back and forth and knew we wanted Simmons Creek because that is the name of the creek on our property. After a few minutes of discussion and trying to figure out exactly what we were going to do, Simmons Creek Tradin Post was born. We wanted to fashion it after the old time tradin posts back in the day. You could get anything from eggs to fabric in these stores and since we have such an eclectic variety of products, we thought this would be a great fit.

As the years flew by, our ideas, products and methods have changed but our mission has remained the same. We are now Simmons Creek but have the same great products, great prices and great customer service. I welcome you to our shop and invite you to come back again and again as we add new products and findings!
