Good Food Makes Great Gifts

The holidays are almost here, and while we may not celebrate with loved ones in person, we can still show them we care with a thoughtful gift. 

The Michigan Good Food Fund Gift Guide is filled with heartfelt, homegrown gifts from independent business owners supported by the Michigan Good Food Fund. Whether you’re looking for something sweet, something savory, or something special, you can find it all in this gift guide. And the best part? You can shop local from wherever you are!

If you’re in Michigan, or just wish you were, shop the guide to spark our local economy. Plus, good food makes great gifts.
