Sugar Island Baking Company opens November 11th in Downtown Flat Rock

Sugar Island Baking Company, 28773 Telegraph Road Flat Rock, Michigan 48134, will do a soft opening on Thursday November 11th.  Owners Christy and Michelle started their business as a home style bakery in their Gibraltar home.  Looking to start a brick and mortar store front business they heard that there may be a space in Flat Rock that may fit their business model.  After visiting the store they knew this was the place for their small family business.  Both Christy and Michelle are married with families and say that their families support them in their new business.

WELCOME TO FLAT ROCK

The first Euro-American settlers in Flat Rock were Michael Vreeland and his five grown sons between 1811 and 1820. Michael had been captured by British Rangers during the Revolutionary War and released after American independence.

The family purchased 800 acres (3.2 km2). The town was called the Village of Vreeland until 1838 when the Vreeland family sold off the majority of the land and relinquished control of the area. The Vreeland families built the first grain and lumber mill, having brought the grinding stones from New York.

Descendants of Michael Vreeland still live in the town and attend Flat Rock public schools, being the seventh generation to reside in the town their family founded.
