About this map
The Leelanau Local Food Map is a community project to make it easy to find the county's bountiful fresh food at farm stands, farmers markets, orchards, bakeries, and roadside food spots. It connects local farmers & producers to people who prefer fresh local food.
Anyone can submit a place. Every listing is reviewed by an automated screen and a human before it appears on the map, and we mark each spot with a "last verified" date so you can trust what you're seeing.
Built by neighbors
Locals, farmers, market managers, and visitors all contribute.
AI-assisted review
A friendly AI helper checks each submission for relevance, duplicates, and basic quality before a human gives the final yes.
Always verifiable
Every listing shows when it was last confirmed. Spotted something off? Flag it in one tap.
What we list
- Farm stands (staffed or self-serve)
- Farmers markets
- Orchards and U-pick operations
- Local food stores and markets
- Bakeries that source locally
- Roadside spots for eggs, honey, flowers, and produce
What we don't list
National chains, restaurants without retail produce, and businesses outside the Leelanau area. The goal is a focused, trustworthy map of the real local food scene.
How submissions work
- You fill out a short form on the submit page.
- Our AI helper checks for relevance, duplicates, and basic quality.
- If everything looks great, it goes live automatically.
- Otherwise it lands in the moderation queue for a human to review.
- Once approved, your spot shows up on the map for everyone.
