The experience is elevated by informative live narration accompanied by the acoustic melodies of guitarist Mike Irish. This is more than a show; it is a vivid celebration of our cultural evolution and style.

Locavore Festival
2026-05-23 12:00 - 16:00 | Houghton Waterfront Pier, Houghton, Michigan, 49931
Houghton’s waterfront will come alive on Saturday, May 23 from 12 to 4 PM as the Locavore Festival returns to the Pier! Locavore celebrates the creativity, flavor, and talent of the Keweenaw. Nearly sixty vendors will line the waterfront with handmade goods, farm fresh products, small batch foods, and community organizations. This is all set to live music from Toni Saari and Matt Bradley.

This year’s artist and maker lineup brings an especially vibrant mix of styles and specialties. Shoppers will find handmade clothing from Topaz’s Trinkets, UP inspired wood inlay pieces from Cedar Lake Workshop, and paintings and prints from Bayside Fine Art and Studio 13. Snarky Spark adds humor with engraved gifts, while Copper Country Collective brings licensed 3D printed creations. Cabin Fever Creative returns with driftwood critters and garden décor, and Red’s Berry Sweet Art brings playful, character-driven art. Additional makers will offer fiber arts, jewelry, photography, leatherwork, hand dyed textiles, goat’s milk soap, books, and a wide range of creative goods that reflect the region’s artistic energy.

Cottage food producers and small batch makers add another layer of flavor to the event. Julie’s Chocolates return with handmade gourmet chocolates, and The Forager and The Baker will have their fan-favorite granola, jams, and chaga. Senise Family Farms will offer plant infused skincare, tinctures, and their popular infused vinegars and salts. M&M Goodies and Copper Country Sweets will feature breads, pastries, and desserts. These vendors create a marketplace where visitors can take home unique flavors and handmade treats that cannot be found anywhere else!

The farm section remains one of the most beloved parts of Locavore, connecting residents directly with the growers who shape the region’s food system. Troemner Farm, Minnie Farms, Whispering Wild Market Farm, and Boersma Family Roots anchor the lineup with produce, herbs, plant starts, baked goods, and early season vegetables. Ghost House Farm and Dragon Tree Gardens add flowers, quail eggs, floral jellies, and unique garden starts. North Harvest contributes sourdough, baked goods, and farm-made products, and Diamond S Ranch will again bring baby goats for families to meet, creating a joyful, hands-on experience for visitors of all ages.

Delicious food and beverage options round out the experience! Griffin Family Café and Catering will serve festival friendly favorites like pasties and pulled pork, Living Proof Brewing Co. will offer their locally brewed kombucha, and the Copper Island Bagel Bus will bring their beloved food truck to the pier.
Community organizations including VFW Post 3900, the Copper Country Humane Society, From the Ground, Big Brothers Big Sisters, and Copper Shores will also be present, offering opportunities for learning, connection, and local engagement.

Finno-Ugric Information Session
2026-05-26 14:00 | Griffin Cafe, 208 Quincy Street, Hancock, Michigan, 49930
Finno-Ugric committee to host information session

What exactly is Finno-Ugric? Why is Hancock so steeped in that culture? And how can I get more involved?
Answers to these, and any other questions local folks might have, will be available at a casual information session scheduled for 2 p.m. on Tuesday, May 26 at Griffin Café at 208 Quincy Street in downtown Hancock. In particular, organizers expect this event will show community members, local businesses and civic organizations how they can get involved as this community prepares to host an international celebration of a magnitude not seen in more than a decade.

Anyone with any level of interest – regardless of cultural background – is encouraged to come to the café, order a tasty treat and develop a better understanding of what makes Hancock and its surrounding area so Finno-Ugric that the world has taken notice.

The headline event celebrating Hancock’s status as the world’s Finno-Ugric Capital of Culture for 2026 is Juhannus (Midsummer), which will take place June 17-21 in and around Hancock. This festival will feature several international guests, including both Finland’s and Estonia’s ambassadors to the United States, as well as a variety of programming and entertainment that’s perfect for the entire family.

“We were selected as the first Finno-Ugric cultural capital outside of Europe, so that speaks to how authentic our expressions of our culture are here,” said Jim Kurtti, the honorary consul of Finland for the Upper Peninsula and the chairman of the Juhannus planning committee. “We’re excited by the many guests we have coming from away, and want to share that excitement with our friends and neighbors here and share with them all they ways they can be a part of this unique, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.”
