Yes, silk has been produced by silk worms in America, particularly during the 19th century when sericulture (the cultivation of silkworms for silk production) was promoted in several states, including California and North Carolina. However, American silk production never reached the scale of countries like China or India, where the industry is deeply rooted in tradition. Today, while there are a few small-scale silk producers in the U.S., the majority of silk consumed is imported.
