Tending a Comfortable Wilderness: A History of Agricultural Landscapes on North Manitou Island, Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, Michigan

West Michigan Agricultural History

This project builds upon three previous studies of historic agriculture at Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore (SBDNL). These have focused on: (1) an overview of the agricultural and settlement history of the two-county SBDNL region; (2) an assessment of the agricultural landscapes and cultural resources at Port Oneida, an important part of the lakeshore’s mainland unit; and (3) an assessment of agricultural and cultural resources on South Manitou Island. This report examines agricultural and cultural resources on North Manitou Island
