We the People Opportunity Farm was built on this principle, believing that the formerly incarcerated men and women of Washtenaw County deserve an opportunity to be restored and reintegrated into the community.

On the farm, participants cultivate more than crops—they grow confidence and hope for the future. The produce they grow is shared with local families, creating a ripple effect of positivity and support. By connecting individuals with the land and with each other, we foster a cycle of healing and community impact that benefits everyone involved.

What started as a vision has grown into a thriving movement of empowerment and change. We The People Opportunity Farm is more than a place to work—it’s a place to grow, heal, and thrive.

The organic produce that they harvest from the farm is distributed to the community at no cost and sold to local restaurants that support their work and enjoy cooking with their food.

The Michigan Flight Museum is an aviation museum located at Willow Run Airport. The museum has a small fleet of flying aircraft and a collection of static display aircraft outdoors. Touch, feel, and interact with some of the most amazing aircraft throughout aviation history.

Learn how they were made and operated. The Story of the Museum begins in 1941 when Willow Run Airport was built by the Ford Motor Company to serve as an airfield for their B-24 Bomber Plant. This was the first aircraft manufacturing complex to use Ford’s automotive mass production technique, a leading technological innovation of the time.

While several of its archives and displays were destroyed by fire in 2004, the museum still operates its historic flight experience in some of their restored Bomber planes.

B-Cubed Bakery is a neighborhood bakery in the Gault Village neighborhood of Ypsilanti. Their focus is on serving their community through great baked goods. This includes not only their customer base, but also working directly with local farmers. They also place an emphasis on fresh milled whole grains (milled on site on their New American Stone Mill) and rebuilding the local grain economy by working with regional and preferably local grain farmers. The bakery was started by Ben, a former software engineer turned baker (and back and forth a couple of times). Ben always loved bread but began to think in 2017 that it was something he might enjoy doing it professionally as well. Between jobs Ben took a two year sabbatical, first enrolling at the Great Lakes Culinary Institute in Traverse City Michigan. During his time in school he worked at a small brick oven bakery staffing the pastry half of the operation. After school Ben spent a year working the night bread shift at Zingerman’s Bakehouse; making great friends and learning a huge amount around baking at higher volumes while still creating real bread. He also gained critical practice, shaping and baking thousands of loaves, as well as a truly terrifying number of bagels. After Zingerman’s Ben started B-Cubed Bakery. A cottage business selling at the Depot Town Farmers Market in Ypsilanti Michigan for the 2022 season. In October of 2024 after a few years at the markets B-Cubed Bakery opened a retail location in the Gault Village neighborhood of Ypsilanti.
