Farmers Markets near Ionia, MI

Ionia

Ionia Harvest Marketplace is a standing indoor marketplace at 120 South Steele Street, open Monday through Saturday rather than a single weekly farmers market. Local growers, bakers, and food vendors sell under one roof, which sets it apart from Ionia's separate outdoor Saturday market across town. Vendor updates post through the market's Facebook page.

Watershed Farmers Market operates indoors on the Watershed church campus at 16280 National Parkway in Lansing, weekdays 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., spring through fall.

Rockford

Rockford Farmers Market runs Saturdays, 8 a.m. to 1 p.m., May through October, in the city lot behind the post office — enter off Main Street, across from Rocky's.
