Farming in the Great Lakes State | Destination Michigan

In this episode of Destination Michigan, we’ll be taking a dive into what it’s like to be a Michigan farmer. In total, over 50,000 farms are scattered across Michigan growing and cultivating around 300 different products. That makes Michigan one of the most agriculturally diverse states in the nation. Though methods of farming have undoubtedly changed over the years, but one thing that hasn’t changed is the fact that it’s a way of life the requires patience, knowledge, and a lot of hard work. We’ll be visiting Winters Calico Fields Farm (a Michigan Sesquicentennial Farm) in the town of Grand Ledge, Guernsey Farms Dairy in Northville, Walnutdale Farms in Wayland, as well as the Cadillac Farmers Market. The show will also feature Willow Run Acres, an organization that teaches gardening and farming skills to folks of all ages.
