Elk Rapids and GT Commons Kick Off "Village to Village" Winter Campaign

Jan. 10, 2026

The Village at Grand Traverse Commons and the Village of Elk Rapids are about 20 miles apart. Not a long drive on a summer’s day, but a less-traveled route during the winter. That’s why Bos Wine and Ethanology Distillation of Elk Rapids teamed up with Left Foot Charley and Trattoria Stella at the Commons. Their “Village to Village” partnership runs Jan. 13 through April 29 with weekly food and beverage features that showcase each other’s wares. Visit LFC on Tuesdays, Stella on Wednesdays, Bos on Saturdays, and Ethanology on Sundays. (*Note: Excluding the final Sunday of each month.) Expect cocktail recipes, tastings, exclusive “library” wines and spirits, and lots of conversations around local food and drink. Each business will share their features on social media, and you can read more about the winter series at stellatc.com/events.
