I was able to launch Harvest Michigan with a shopping cart early this morning. Harvest Michigan features non-perishables and perishable items. We are going slow with the perishables and would ask patience to our customers as we help the farmers (local and small, family owned) bring their bounty to our tables.

Why local, small & family owned? Well, we believe that is were everything needs to go back to. There is no need for a global company to bring food in from across the country and globe when the majority of our food stuffs can be made & grown locally. It is called regaining control of our food systems.

There are big, family owned farms - and by nature of being big do not need our help, and are usually (but not always) growing the 'common' crops that get exported out of the state. Now, that is important, but we have plenty of farm land to be able to supply more of our own food.
