Registered as an LLC rather than a city-run event, this Elkhart County operation runs from a County Road 26 address outside town, suggesting a farm stand or produce business rather than a downtown vendor market. No current hours or contact details could be verified.

Goshen

The Goshen Farmers Market has proudly served Elkhart County since 2000, open year-round Saturdays 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. and Tuesday afternoons May through October at 212 W. Washington Street. This thriving community gathering spot is a one-stop shop for locally grown (mostly organic) produce, hormone-free meats and eggs, local honey, homemade baked goods, and artisan wares — often priced below the grocery store.

Granger

Granger Farmers' Market sets up on the Good Shepherd United Methodist Church campus at 51521 Elm Road, off State Road 23 between the fire station and the library. Vendors sell fresh produce, artisanal foods, and handcrafted goods through the growing season, with seasonal specialties rotating in as crops come ready. It's a north St. Joseph County market built around a church parking lot rather than a downtown square.

South Bend

The South Bend Farmers Market has served the community since 1911, when farmers within 40 miles sold from the Colfax Street bridge; incorporated in 1924, it has occupied its Northside Boulevard home since 1928. The year-round market keeps its original Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday schedule, packing an H-shaped building with home-grown produce, dairy, meats, eggs, maple syrup, flowers, handcrafts, and a bustling three-counter restaurant.

Cassopolis

Cassopolis is the Cass County seat, set between Diamond Lake and Stone Lake in southwest Michigan. Its farmers market on North Broadway Street has no current website or social page to confirm vendors or season.

Open Tuesday and Thursday 8am-2pm and Saturday 7am-3pm on Northside Boulevard, with around 75 local farmers, artists, and artisans selling produce, dairy, meat, eggs, maple syrup, jams, flowers, and crafts. ATM, credit cards, SNAP, and WIC are all accepted, making it one of the more accessible year-round setups in the region.

This Niles market, once branded as part of the Bensidoun French Market network, sets up near the corner of Front and Main downtown. Vendors have sold seasonal produce, breads, flowers, books, clothing, and other specialty goods on summer Sundays, though some local listings now refer to the same event as the Niles Homegrown Market.

Niles

Niles Artisan Alley Market takes over East Main Street with a European-style open-air setup, running Sundays from late spring through summer. Vendors sell fresh produce, baked breads, handcrafted clothing, flowers, and other artisan foods in the alley space downtown. The city maintains an official page for current season dates, since exact hours have shifted year to year.

This market sets up on North Washington Street in Constantine, a short walk from the St. Joseph River, with a lineup that shifts by season — strawberries and sweet corn in summer, pumpkins and mums by fall. Vendors also bring baked goods, flowers, and plants. Call 269-435-2085 or check constantinemi.com for this year's market days.

This market operates inside Scidmore Park, the riverfront park at the meeting point of the St. Joseph, Portage, and Rocky Rivers that gave Three Rivers its name. Vendors bring produce, baked goods, plants, and prepared foods through the growing season. Call the city's parks department at 269-273-1075 for this year's market days and hours, since the schedule is set fresh each season.

Three Rivers

The Huss Project runs this Saturday market, 9am to 1pm, June through September, out of a converted elementary school at 1008 8th Street in Three Rivers. The nonprofit behind it, *culture is not optional, also runs the on-site Triple Ripple Community Gardens and youth programming, so the market shares grounds with an urban farm rather than sitting alone in a parking lot.

Sturgis

Producers-only market for Sturgis, Michigan and surrounding areas.
