Garden Clean-up & Planning
Beaver Island is a network of like-minded residents, all who believe in the power of self-sufficiency. As a remote island, accessible by boat or plane, learning to grow and preserve food is a resourceful and cost-effective way to sustain a nutritious diet.
Whether you are a seasoned gardener or new to the concept of growing your own food, we are here to help you bring your vision to fruition!
As the Spring season swiftly falls upon us, the thought of getting out there and reworking the soil might seem daunting, but we are here to help! From pulling weeds to building raised beds and everything in between, our helping hands can make your garden work much easier.
If you’re interested in getting started and need guidance on crop planning or garden design, we specialize in regenerative practices and organic methods, either newly established or conversion.

Organic Produce
*Summer 2025*
We are in the process of cultivating our first micro-farm here on Beaver Island! Using regenerative practices, micro-farming focuses on creating biodiverse foodscapes that heal the soil and promote open pollination. Methods such as companion planting, cover crops and no-till techniques paired with the addition of natural amendments, help turn an overgrown, nutrient deficient plot of land into a living, breathing organism of sustainable food!
All of our produce items are grown by hand without the use of synthetic chemicals or fertilizers. We’ve already got seeds sprouting and will be harvesting our first round of crops ready for your plates by the Summer of this year! (2025)

Meal Kits & Home Delivery
*Fall 2025*
Supporting local businesses and organizations is one of the ways we give back to the Beaver Island community. The concept of meal delivery is relatively new and something that is widely used by our island residents. While the ordering process is still the same as if you were on the mainland, the island doesn’t have traditional door to door delivery service so boxes get picked up from the airport.
This additional step can be challenging for some and extends the length of time that fresh produce is out of optimal temperatures, reducing shelf-life considerably.
We are working on a new concept where the produce that we grow is made available for meal configurations and proteins will initially come from the local grocery store. Ultimately, our goal is to create a channel of fresh butchered meats that are produced on the island which can be included in our kits when needed. Any fruits, vegetables, dairy, grains or proteins that can’t be produced on the island, will come from Michigan based farms and locally owned businesses.
Orders will be placed right online where individual items can be selected or specific meals chosen with recipe cards included in the box. Then you choose your delivery date and we take it from there!
