Food Brand Project

Help us grow & support our Southwest Michigan agriculture!

Southwest Michigan Local Food Council (SWMLFC) is developing a local food brand and we’d be so grateful for your feedback.

Yes, it’s a quick survey. But it’s not boring! DEADLINE AUG 11. 

The purpose of the food brand project is to promote the unique qualities that define Southwest Michigan agriculture, including its farmers. Our objective is to catalyze the Southwest Michigan food infrastructure and help grow the local economy.

Local Food Producer Spotlight

Here in Michigan’s great southwest we are lucky to be in a land abundant with farms, among these is Granor Farm, a certified organic produce and grain operation. What makes Granor stand out is not only their commitment to providing fresh, organic, local produce, but their robust outreach model that invites the community to come have memorable experiences on the farm.
