Common Good Does Good

Stuff We Love

By Craig Manning | Oct. 15, 2022

2022 is a big year for Traverse City’s Common Good Bakery. The Fourteenth Street bakery officially celebrated five years in business in August, and a second location at 1115 East Eighth Street is slated to open shortly after Thanksgiving. To mark the five-year milestone and make good on its ongoing mission to “do good, every day,” Common Good Bakery is partnering with Project Feed the Kids “to address the systemic problem of food insecurity.” Project Feed the Kids is a local nonprofit, founded in 2020 by J&S Hamburg proprietor Tiffany McQueer, which has served more than 85,000 meals to children, veterans, people experiencing homelessness, and others throughout the pandemic. Common Good recently announced a $3,000 donation to Project Feed the Kids and is encouraging customers to pitch in as well, whether by making their own donations or volunteering to help the nonprofit pack the 1,500 lunches it offers for free each week.
