Yesterday, we were informed that Michigan, along with 10 other U.S. states, was approved by South Korea to ship chipping potatoes there. Considering the Michigan grows more chipping potatoes than any other U.S. state, that's a big opportunity for our farms!

Previously, only fresh and chipping potato growers from Idaho, Oregon, and Washington were able to access the Korean market.

One of many donations to local food pantries. We ended up with approximately 4,900 pounds from the 172 doe donated at the Kalamazoo County Farm Bureau 2nd Annual Doe Derby back on 1/3/26. Well done Kalamazoo County Farm Bureau!! 👏 👏

Let’s give a hand to Kalamazoo County Farm Bureau for donating 594 # of venison from their doe derby and to Cliff Lipscomb for delivering the meat today! 👏🏻👏🏻

This year's Doe Derby was a huge success! We couldn't have done it without the many volunteers and sponsors. We wanted to do a special shout out to thank Penske for generously donating a refrigerated truck to use for the event. This enabled us to keep all the deer cold and fresh on their way to processing. Thank you, Penske!!

It's almost time? Have you got your doe yet? If not, you still have plenty of time.
And remember, you don't need to bring a doe to participate in all the fun. Be sure to review all the entry rules for full details. We look forward to seeing you all there!
