Gifting the Local Difference

Stuff We Love
Nov. 22, 2025

If you need a one-stop shop to explore Michigan-made products, look no further than the Taste the Local Different Local Gift Guide. Per the TDL website, “Purchasing from your community triples the joy, as your dollar returns three times the value when you shop with an independent business compared to a box store.” From food, wine, coffee, and tea (plus Drinking Chocolate from Grocer’s Daughter!) to tours, gift boxes, and apparel, there’s bound to be something for everyone on your list. To shop, sign up for TDL’s newsletter, which will deliver regular recommendations along with discounts and giveaways throughout the holiday season. localdifference.org/blog/holidaygiftguide-signup
