A family legacy of serving the community.

The Morrison family made roots in Hillman, MI in 1954. Harvey (Bill) Morrison was hunting around Lewiston, MI and stumbled upon Hillman. He fell in love with the area and decided to raise his family there.

Originally, Morrison bought a small store on Main Street (when it was still gravel). The family paid $50 monthly until the mortgage was paid in full. The store had only two isles at that time -- offering basic groceries, meat and produce.

In the 1960s, Bill Morrison purchased a farm implement store and moved to the current location. All five of his kids worked there. In 1977 Doug Morrison took over. He expanded the store three times. The gas pumps came along in 2006.

Bill & Marge Morrison had 10 grandchildren -- all worked at the store part time at one point in their lives. Doug's sons Corey, Zach and Neil have worked there the longest. This summer a third generation Morrison, Olivia, joined them, too.
