Farmers Markets near Monroe, MI

Monroe

Belleville

Milan

Milan's Saturday market runs 7 a.m. to noon on Wabash Street from spring through fall, with vendors who are the actual farmers, bakers, and cheesemakers behind what's on their tables rather than resellers. Expect local produce, meats, artisan foods, seasonal flowers, and street food alongside handmade crafts in this small Washtenaw-Monroe border town.

Gibraltar Farmers Market runs seasonally out of an old pavilion at 29340 South Gibraltar Road, a spot locals still associate with the former Bob Logan Island park land. Vendors bring produce, baked goods, cut flowers, honey, and potted herbs. It's a small, community-run market rather than a produce wholesaler.

Ypsilanti Township

Old City Acres started with a backyard and a shovel; it's now a working farm and food hub on Stony Creek Road growing more than 40 crops — kale, peppers, tomatoes, squash, apples, strawberries, blueberries, herbs, mushrooms — plus eggs, honey, maple syrup, and preserves, using no-till methods and integrated pest management. Owner Alex Ball built one of the only farms in the region individually accredited to accept SNAP, and runs a year-round CSA delivering across Ypsilanti, Belleville, Romulus, and Ann Arbor.

Ypsilanti

West Willow Farmers Market keeps an unusually long week for a Michigan market — Tuesday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Saturdays until 1 p.m., spring through fall, at 2057 Tyler Road in Ypsilanti. It sells produce, baked goods, flowers, and artisan goods, and doubles SNAP dollars through the Double Up Food Bucks program.

Taylor

Kurtzhals Farms runs this market at 12111 Pardee Road in Taylor, open seven days a week from spring through fall with fresh fruit, vegetables, baked goods, and handcrafted items. Weekday hours run 9 a.m. to 7 p.m., Sundays until 6 p.m. Call (734) 941-2081 or check the Kurtzhals Farms Facebook page for what's in season.

Ypsilanti

Growing Hope has run food-system programs out of West Michigan Avenue since 2003, starting with school gardens and growing into a 1.4-acre urban farm, a food-business incubator kitchen, and the Ypsilanti Farmers Market. That market sets up downtown at 16 South Washington Street on Saturdays, 9am to 1pm, May through October, with produce and prepared foods from area vendors. The Michigan Avenue address is Growing Hope's farm and administrative home, not the market itself — worth knowing before driving over expecting stalls.

Wayne

Wayne Farmers' Market runs spring through fall at 3355 S. Wayne Rd., with produce, baked goods, artisan crafts, and prepared foods set up in an outdoor park-style lot. It's inexpensive by design and takes SNAP and WIC — built for weekly grocery runs rather than a tourist stop.

Wayne

Wayne Open-Air Market runs spring through fall at 3144 South Wayne Road, a short drive from the separate Wayne Farmers' Market on the same road. It's an outdoor, park-style setup selling produce and artisan goods and accepts SNAP and WIC — the kind of second, smaller market a town runs when one lot isn't enough.

Southgate

Located on Eureka Road and known locally as Eureka Farm Market and Deli, this Southgate market stays open year-round, seven days a week, with produce, baked goods, flowers, honey, herbs, and prepared foods alongside a deli counter. Weekday hours run 9 a.m. to 8 p.m., Sundays until 7 p.m. Call (734) 246-4941 for current stock and deli specials.

Canton

Canton Farmers Market runs seasonally at Preservation Park in Canton Township, Wayne County, with its regular season opening in May. Canton Township's own site lists the market among current community news but doesn't publish a standing vendor list or weekly hours.

Westland

Westland

Westland Farmers' Market takes over 1901 N. Carlson St. every Thursday from 3 to 7 p.m., spring through fall, with pavilions, a kids' play area, and live music built into the lot. Vendors sell produce, baked goods, artisan goods, and prepared foods, and the market accepts SNAP and WIC — closer to a weekly block party than a bare-bones produce stand.

Allen Park

Ann Arbor

This market takes its name from Cobblestone Farm, a historic 1840s farmstead preserved as a city park on Packard Street in Ann Arbor. No current website was found confirming whether the market is still active or listing its present vendors and hours.

Saline

The Saline Farmers Market, run by the City of Saline, Michigan, operates Saturdays year-round: outdoors on S. Ann Arbor Street from May to early November, 8 a.m. to noon, then indoors at Liberty School through the winter. A weekly Friday newsletter shares market news, vendor profiles, and recipes.

Lincoln Park

Lincoln Park Farmers Market is a seasonal market focusing on locally grown fruits and vegetables, locally made specialty foods as well as and locally made arts and crafts. Our mission is, “To educate the community about healthy, locally grown food, and promoting good health.” Our objective is Michigan grown/Michigan made by the farmer, vendor, and crafter. With the emphasis on organic foods, the advantage of a local farmer market is that one can talk to the farmer who raised the foods that they are to take home and eat.

behind Frosty Boy Blissfield

Blissfield Farmers Market sets up behind the Frosty Boy on West Adrian Street in Blissfield, a Lenawee County village in southeast Michigan's grain and produce belt. Sharing a lot with a longtime local drive-in gives the market built-in foot traffic on market days.

Held monthly on Fridays, 4-8pm, June through August, in the lot behind Dearborn's Bryant Branch Library on Michigan Avenue. Branded the Dearborn Summer Market and run by the West Dearborn Downtown Development Authority, it mixes artisan vendors, bakers, jewelry and pottery makers with live music and food trucks — more community festival than produce stand.

Jewett Street Farmers' Market runs indoors on Saturdays, 7am to 3pm, spring through fall, at 1289 Jewett Street in Ann Arbor. Vendors sell produce, baked goods, flowers, handmade crafts, and prepared street food. It's one of eight USDA-listed farmers markets in Ann Arbor, so it competes for vendors and shoppers with markets across town rather than standing alone.

Melvindale's Downtown Development Authority runs this Wednesday market at Cardinal Park on Oakwood Boulevard, open 3 to 7 p.m. from June through September. Vendors sell fresh vegetables and fruit, eggs, milk, pasture-raised meat, baked goods, and artisan crafts to a Detroit-suburb crowd without many other direct-from-grower options nearby.

Tecumseh

The Tecumseh Area Chamber of Commerce runs this Saturday market on East Chicago Boulevard, 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., spring through fall. Vendors sell fresh produce, meat, honey, coffee, cut flowers, baked goods, and artisan crafts, with parking available across the street. Reach the chamber at 517-451-8063 or [email protected] for vendor applications or event details.

Clinton

Clinton is a small Lenawee County village on the River Raisin, between Ann Arbor and Adrian. Its farmers market on Jackson Street has no current website confirming vendors or season.

Adrian

Madison Farmers Market runs Saturdays, 7am to 1pm, May through October, at 3000 Treat Street in Adrian. It's one of Lenawee County's longer-running Saturday markets, drawing from the surrounding farm country in Michigan's southeast corner near the Ohio line.
