The Ann Arbor Farmers Market sits at 315 Detroit Street in - you guessed it - Ann Arbor.
This beloved attraction draws in college students, local families, and out-of-towners alike with its awesome array of community-sourced produce, wares, and more.
While many Michigan farmers' markets are only open on a seasonal basis, the Ann Arbor Farmers Market operates every Saturday and some Wednesdays year-round.
That’s right: no matter what the season, you can count on finding farm-fresh delights at this century-old market. There’s something here for everyone to appreciate.
At the heart of the market is its vendors. There are more than 100 participating local businesses, representing everything from dairy farmers to bakeries.
Take home some brilliant blooms for your garden, stock up on coffee beans, or simply do your weekly grocery shopping. It’s almost impossible to leave empty-handed.
There’s a sense of community here that’s difficult to replicate. While we adore Motor City spots like Eastern Market, the smaller vibe in Ann Arbor is so worth experiencing.
No matter how many times you’ve dropped by to shop at this refreshing destination near Detroit, you’ll always find something new to take home. Get ready to stock up.
