Gourmet Michigan products in unique gift baskets. Great tasting jams, dried cherries, chocolates, caramel corn, Michigan fudge, and much more.
I love photographs like these that show off Michigan's diverse and beautiful landscape. It's always a treat to see the reactions from people that don't live in Michigan. They just can't believe a place like this exists here.
Enjoy this old 8mm footage of the 1968 Oscoda, Michigan 4th of July parade.
I love this great tribute to Michigan's dairy farmers. We were just up at Country Dairy a couple of weeks ago and enjoyed a nice breakfast along with an ice cold glass of their wonderful chocolate milk that is so rich and creamy you would think it was a milkshake. Grab an ice cold glass of milk and watch the latest Pure Michigan commercial -

This is horrible news for Michigan's fruit farmers who have seen the tart cherry crop all but destroyed and the sweet cherry, apple, and other fruit crops severely damaged.
I'm not sure what the total affect will be on the cherry products that we carry in our gourmet Michigan gift baskets. Most likely, we will be faced with a choice of higher costs (due to little if any tart cherry crop this year) in some instances or the likelihood of having to replace some of our cherry products with other Michigan fruits.
We'll keep you posted on our cherry product availability and at the same time - we'll keep a lookout for other products to carry in the event that cherry products become too costly or unavailable.

Did you know that Michigan is home to five National Parks?
Here's a list of them (in no particular order):
April 20, 1912. A mere five days after the sinking of the Titanic, two iconic ballparks opened. Tiger Stadium in Detroit and Fenway Park in Boston. Today, only Fenway Park remains, but the memory of Tiger Stadium lives on. The final game took place on September 27, 1999 and the last pieces of Tiger Stadium were torn down nearly 10 years to the day of the last game on September 21, 2009.
Celebrate the historic corner of Michigan and Trumbull with our new Tiger Stadium Crate. The ends are made to look like home plate and the sides are street signs - "Michigan" on one side and "Trumbull" on the other. The two streets representing the great ballpark on "The Corner" so aptly named by the great Tigers radio broadcaster, Ernie Harwell.
