Funding Local Farming for Ziibimijwang
Stuff We Love
Feb. 8, 2025
The Leadership Little Traverse (LLT) Class of 2025 wants to help the community grow. The leadership program—put on by the Harbor Springs Area and Petoskey Regional Chambers of Commerce—has teamed up with Ziibimijwang, a nonprofit farm operated by the Little Traverse Bay Bands of Odawa Indians that aims to “emphasize sustainable methods that align with Anishinaabek traditional ecological knowledge.” In February, LLT is facilitating several fundraising events to help Ziibimijwang expand with local businesses, including Culver’s in Petoskey (Feb. 13 from 4-8pm; 10 percent of sales donated), Buffalo Wild Wings in Petoskey (Feb. 19 from 11am-12am; up to 20 percent of sales donated), and Grandpa Shorter’s (Feb. 22 9am-5pm; up to 20 percent of sales donated). Gypsy Spirits has also agreed to match up to $500 in donations made online. Learn more at ziibimijwang.org/lltpartnership.
