Saline Farmers Market...Year Round

What's happening on the Saline Farmers Market!

Saline's successful mid-week market ends on Tuesday, September 25 for the season.  The weather this year was extremely changeable with hot, hot temps during the summer all the way to a cool, windy, stormy days during September.  The vendors are so loyal that of course they were there every Tuesday to offer their wonderful, fresh, local veggies, fruit, eggs, meat, delicious baked goods, plants, flowers, and handcrafted items.  A thank you goes out to all of the loyal customers.

Saturday (Summer) Farmers Market is still going strong from 8am-noon Downtown on S. Ann Arbor St.  There is still so much to choose from including a huge variety of veggies, apples, apple cider, eggs, meat, honey, delectable baked goods, mums of all colors, cuts flowers, plants, and beautiful handcrafted items.

Saline's Saturday (Winter) Market begins November 3 (skip Nov. 10 because of the craft show) and runs through April 27 (skip March 16 - Craft Show).  Everyone was amazed last year of how much the Winter Market offered including a nice variety of produce through the entire season (some vendors have hoop houses where they can grow produce year round).  This year there will once again be lots of produce as well as eggs, meat, cheese, baked goods of all kinds, apple cider, honey, jams/jellies and more.  Special offerings for Thanksgiving and Christmas will be handcrafted centerpieces, wreaths, gifts and much more.  We will also have a large variety of handmade items throughout the entire season.
