Dear fellow Localist,
When I first sat down to draft this letter, it was early March. I don’t need to point out how much has changed since then, but one thing remains the same: putting local first means putting people first. And our local business community needs us now, more than ever. The strength of our economy depends on keeping our dollars here, in West Michigan. As you (safely) visit the places in this book, I encourage you to thank the establishments for being Local First members. It’s because of them that Local First can continue our work.
Are you visiting? Check out our restaurants, retail, arts, and entertainment. Are your new to Michigan? Use this book to find your new dentist, vet office, hairdresser, and more. Are you a business? Localize your supply chain with the companies listed here – or become a member and be listed alongside them!
Communities that have a high percentage of local ownership are stronger by nearly every economic indicator. When you support local businesses, your dollars stay in the community and go towards equitable employment, ethical business standards, and healthier neighborhoods. Not only that, communities with Local First campaigns also experience higher revenue growth.

What are the Sustainable Development Goals? The 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure that all people enjoy peace and prosperity. They recognize that ending poverty and other deprivations must go hand-in-hand with strategies that improve health and education, reduce inequality, and spur economic growth – all while tackling climate change and working to preserve our oceans and forests.
“At its heart, our movement for local living economies is about love. Our love of place, our love of life, give us the courage to protect what we care about most—children, communities, animals, nature, all of life on our beautiful planet Earth.”

8 MARTHA’S VINEYARD
Photos by Corriveau Photography, pg. 48
Our Grand Rapids area feature is Martha’s Vineyard and its Parallel to the in-store renovations was the development of child companies. This unique collection of businesses takes up complementary businesses: Martha’s Catering (Food and a block in the Heritage Hill neighborhood and is a healthy mix Beverage Catering Services), Nantucket Baking Co (Bakery), of made-in-Michigan products, house-made edibles, and goods Martha’s Pizza (To-Go Pizza Shop) and Lyon Street Café from around the world. (Coffee Shop/Café). All located within the block and sourcing from one another. Second generation leader, Ilana Chamelly, sat down with Local First to share their story.
1. Tell us how it all began...
Kameel Chamelly purchased the building at 200 Union Ave in the early 1980’s. At that time, it was a small 900 sq ft liquor store.
Over the years, the store has evolved. Each renovation offering a new aspect to the business. The store has expanded over six times within the last 38 years, to include an extensive beer and liquor selection, an expansive array of specialty grocery, fresh and local produce, domestic and Europeans cheese, a from scratch deli, pizza shop and pastry section, to an incredible wine selection, showcasing wines from around the world.
9 2. How would you describe the culture of Martha’s Vineyward – the personality of your staff, your space, and your products.
Our culture is welcoming, attentive, and friendly. We are a team of customer service-focused, outgoing, and knowledgeable individuals ready to assist with whatever you might be looking for: freshly prepared deli items, a forgotten lemon, the perfect bottle of wine for the evening’s dinner, local beer, or specialty ingredients for cocktails or inspired flavors.
3. What do you see as innovative and extraordinary about Martha’s?
One of the many things that I admire about owner, Kameel Chamelly, is his ability to evolve. It’s not always easy to change with the times around us. I think that is a key factor in the success of the business over the last 30 years.
4. Imagine you are guiding a customer on through their first experience at Martha’s. What hidden gems, featured products, special services, etc. should they know about?
If someone new is walking into Martha’s, I would encourage them to take it all in – enjoy the aromas of food being prepped for the deli, sample a slice of fresh cut cheese, walk the grocery shelves and travel the world through our selection of wine through our main floor and loft.
Our deli offers some wonderful made-to-order meat and cheese boards, veggie, fruit and antipasti trays. One of my favorite pre-order options is the Picnic Tote, filled with meats, cheeses and fruits. It is an affordable picnic option to take to the many outdoor concerts throughout the summer and is packed in a Martha’s Vineyard re-usable tote bag.
5. What exciting things does Martha’s have on the horizon?
We have E.A. Brady’s Butcher shop going in just around the corner from us. They are a fantastic butcher shop that supplies freshly butchered proteins. Be Local. Build Success. Bank United.
When you choose United Bank, you choose a partner, advocate and community leader.

1. How did the business start? 3. What have you celebrated in the last year?
After serving in WW II John Jonker returned to Holland, We recently had our 70th anniversary. Last year we had the Michigan. He and his wife, Marie started business selling fruits highest sales on record. and vegetables. John, from the back of a small truck and Marie from their home on Lincoln Avenue.

How would you describe the culture of your business? it shows in their work and attitude. It can be dirty hard work, but as long as we enjoy what we do we are happy to come to We are all passionate about gardening and love sharing that work each day. passion with our customers. Customers come to us for our 5. What do you see as innovative and extraordinary about your business?
We grow most of what we sell. We have many growers to choose from but we can’t always find the varieties or the quality that we want so we just grow it in our own greenhouses. We can’t grow everything, so we have lots of local greenhouses and nurseries that we work with to find the best quality possible. Every grower has their specialties and we have spent years walking through greenhouses to find the best product possible.
6. What hidden gems, featured products, or special services should readers know about?
It’s safe to say that you will not find the variety you will at Jonker’s anywhere else. Talk with the Jonker’s employees – we have lots of well-seasoned staff who have been working here for 15-30+ years and have been gardening even longer that that. They are experts and can help find the perfect plants for every situation.
7. What exciting things does your business have on the horizon?
We are looking to reconfigure our layout and build a new centrally located retail store and greenhouse. Because we have been adding on since 1948, there are some things that need to be done to bring the property together and improve the flow of customers and their experience. Also, since our inventory is so extensive, we are looking at different technologies that can better keep track of it. This will help us be more efficient and more quickly find plants for our customers.
8. What else would you like readers to know?
Take a close look at the quality, most of our plants are grown on site. What we do not grow, we get from one of 15+ greenhouses located within a 20 mile radius. We are proud of our relationships with other greenhouses and our hyperlocal sourcing. Not only are we happy to keep our money in the community the quality is better. Our plants are not shoved on racks, sleeved in plastic, loaded on trucks, and shipped in from other states. Plants don’t like being crowded on a truck stuck in a long distribution chain similarly as they are at our big box competitors. LAKESHORE BUSINESSES
