Great Lakes Incubator Farm – GT County
The Great Lakes Incubator Farm (GLIF), located on Grand Traverse County’s historic Meyer Farm property, is September’s Groceries for Good recipient. GLIF is an active land-based agricultural program that fosters the growth and development of farmers just starting out in Northwest Lower Michigan. The farm gives people interested in farming the opportunity to learn and gain expertise and start a new agricultural business. Overall the GLIF program’s goal is to aid in the succession of local farmland, create a local farming model based on principles of regenerative agriculture, build resilience in our local food economies, and create a lasting culture of health and wellness. GLIF also serves as a demonstration farm where community members can gather and connect to learn about natural resources, conservation, agriculture, food, farming systems, and best and regenerative practices.
