Lakeview Hills Organic Farm LLC

Lakeview Hills Organic Farm LLC, operating through its Lakeview Hill Farm Division, is a Michigan-based agricultural producer that serves the federal government as a recipient of grants supporting food-system development, farm labor standards, and COVID-19 relief — not as a federal contractor.

The firm is structured as a limited liability partnership and for-profit organization headquartered in Traverse City, Michigan. Its federal footprint consists entirely of grant awards from the U.S. Department of Agriculture, making it a pure grant recipient rather than a contract prime or subcontractor. The firm competes in full-and-open grant competitions with no stated SBA set-aside designation in the source material.

Lakeview Hills has received four prime grant awards totaling $490 thousand in obligated dollars across the past five years. The most recent is a July 2024 project grant from USDA's Washington Office under the Farmworker Labor and Supply continuity Program (completion July 2027), supporting the implementation of labor standards to address seasonal agricultural worker shortages and workplace safety for both U.S. workers and H-2A visa workers. Prior work includes a $250 thousand Rural Business Cooperative Services award under the Farmers Market and Local Food Promotion Program (CFDA 10.175), completed September 2025, focused on developing producer-to-consumer marketing channels, value-added food processing, and access to locally produced agricultural products for socially disadvantaged farmers and ranchers. The firm also received COVID-19 pandemic-relief funding from USDA's Agricultural Marketing Service in January 2022 to cover workplace safety retrofits, market pivots, transportation, and worker housing costs incurred between the March 2020 public health emergency declaration and year-end 2021.

All three USDA funding lines — Rural Housing Service's Washington Office Rural Business Cooperative Services division, Agricultural Marketing Service, and the Farm Service Agency — account for 100% of Lakeview Hills' identifiable federal award volume. The firm also appears as a sub-recipient of a Michigan Department of Agriculture and Rural Development sub-grant awarded in September 2025 for development of a commercial kitchen to process local farmers' produce into value-added products. One prime grant award (combined potential value not specified in source) reaches ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating a recompete event in that window.
