Sponsor the Keweenaw Thimbleberry Festival

This homegrown Keweenaw fest is partnering with local markets, small businesses, and community organizations to celebrate the beloved thimbleberry - a small, wild fruit with a big story. From jam makers and growers to artists and families, this festival is about cultivating connection to place, people, and the flavors that make the Keweenaw unique.

We invite you to be part of this year’s festival as a sponsor!

Every dollar contributed goes directly back into the festival - supporting live music, hands-on programming, printed materials, free or low-cost merchandise for attendees, and marketing efforts that help this event flourish. Your support helps us continue growing something meaningful for our community while shining a light on local growers, makers, and small businesses.
