Mitten Box Brings Michigan’s Makers to Homes Nationwide Through Story-Driven Subscription Boxes

Dorothy Twinney, founder of Mitten Box, believes that buying locally strengthens both neighborhoods and livelihoods. “It can help keep more money circulating nearby, support the continuation of craft and food traditions and provide opportunities for people whose work is closely connected to community life,” she says.

Inspired by this vision, she launched Mitten Box, a curated subscription service that celebrates Michigan’s farmers, makers and entrepreneurs. Each box features locally produced goods presented with care, highlighting the richness of products created across the state and offering customers an easy way to share a tangible sense of place with friends, family and colleagues.

Building on this mission, Mitten Box offers seasonal collections and a special breakfast kit. Customers may choose quarterly subscriptions or opt for one-time gifts, with boxes shipping nationwide. Two main quarterly options vary by size: A smaller selection that typically carries four to six items; and a larger selection that generally arrives with eight to 12.

The breakfast kit, meanwhile, is a single-purchase box designed to provide a ready-to-enjoy morning spread for holidays and family gatherings. Beyond serving individual customers, Mitten Box also designs tailored boxes for corporate gifting and offers co-branded options that align with client needs.
