We are so thankful for everyone’s continued support during our legal issues we are currently facing. Your show of support is what has kept us going!
This Saturday we will be bringing “Food Freedom” T-shirts to market for $25 dollars each. The design on the shirts is hand drawn from a Michigan artist and the shirt itself was created to help another local farm during the legal battle they faced, which ended up being a 3 year battle. Everyone is welcome to purchase shirts at this link https://www.loyaltees.clothing/food-freedom or you can stop by our booth at market and pick one up in person. Again thank you to everyone for your continued support during this time. We can’t lose our Food Freedom!
