So being from Michigan, and there being the "Made in Michigan" theme for products made in Michigan, I of course wanted to make a completely "Made in Michigan" beer. Hops and grains are no problem, and my water source is Detroit. The only thing I was not aware of was any Michigan yeast companies. I started looking and actually did find one based in the U.P.!
I have not tried any, just looked around. I am not affiliated with the company at all. I can say that they are quick to respond to questions. I submitted a question on July 4th in the A.M. and received a response back within 15 minutes!
They do have 3 Michigan wild yeast strains, and it looks like they are going for more. They also have some of the standards as well.

if you want to purchase at the home brew scale, they are using 2 companies.
