Every purchase of @cherryrepublic Confiscated Fruit Mix supports the Friends of Sleeping Bear Dunes!
Correction from an earlier post, the statesman mix - which we highlighted a few days ago, supports another local environmental focused non-profit. In fact, $1 from every sale of 9 different Cherry Republic products goes back to support the community and environmental conservation in the Great Lakes region.
