Native American Coffee
Fort Smith, Arkansas
About Native American Coffee
There’s a growing number of Native American-owned coffee roasters out there, but this wholesaler from Fort Smith on the Oklahoma border has been at it since 2008. Native American Coffee is native-owned and operated – the proprietor is a member of the Muscogee (Creek) Nation – and it sells its beans by the pound, “giving our customers more bang for their buck.” I’d try the Jack’d Rabbit, Black Wolf and Swan blends.

Mackinac Island, Michigan
About Original Murdick’s Fudge
Mackinac Island is the small bucolic tourist destination located in the Great Lakes region that separates Michigan’s Upper Peninsula residents (Yoopers) from the Lower Peninsula or Mitten citizens (trolls, as in below the five-mile long Mackinac Bridge). Known for its relaxed atmosphere as a small piece of land where transportation is by horse and buggy or walking (no cars allowed!), it is a favorite summertime destination that is home to the legendary Grand Hotel. But no visitor escapes Mackinac without their fill of the island’s famous fudge. Original Murdick’s Fudge is a legendary treat and makes a perfect stocking stuffer or you can order larger boxes of the world-famous chocolate delight.
