Ceresco is a small unincorporated community in Calhoun County in the U.S. state of Michigan.

[1] Ceresco is situated on the Kalamazoo River approximately five miles west of downtown Marshall.

Isaac E. Crary and John D. Pierce named the community by combining the name of Ceres, the Roman goddess of growing grains, with the first two letters of "company."

The first post office was established on December 30, 1843, with Winslow S. Hale as the first postmaster.

[3] The farming village of Ceresco, Nebraska is named after this place, the home town of Richard Nelson and Hod Andrus, two early settlers in the Nebraska hamlet.
