This is in the same place where the Kalamazoo Farmers Market is. I actually found out about it…read morethrough Nonla Burger's Instagram account, and since I was in town this weekend my friends and I decided to check it out. It was HOT when we went (about 90 degrees out) but the market has some nice shaded areas. There were a lot of vendors selling true vintage things (clothing, typewriters, records, etc.) and a few selling homemade things. I ended up buying a small Alice in Wonderland purse (clutch-sized) for $12 which I really liked. There were also a few food vendors on site - that day (8/5/18) there was Nonla Burger, plus a kebob stand and one other small food truck. We also had ice cream from Red Trike Ice Cream and that was super tasty. 4 stars instead of 5 from me because the bathroom situation could be better (they have Womens and Mens bathrooms by the "Office" area, which is in the middle of the market) ... apparently during the Farmers Market they have more of an indoor bathroom area though. Regardless of the weather, this was a fun time and I'd go back again when in the area.

I had no idea this store has been around for so long! 10 years? Some reviews date back to 2008…read more There has not been one written in a while. So here I am. ;) Upon my first glace, there were many small little cake decorations and such. Everything from baby shower, to 50th anniversary and more. Along the outside wall are cake pans of various shapes. Many special characters, available for 'rent'. You essentially leave them a deposit of $20(or $25) and then you are reimbursed $20 upon returning the cake pan. I will try to ask more questions the next time I go! I didn't get to look at everything, but I did purchase some oil flavorings. Available as well were food dyes, buttercream in a few different colors (and I think chocolate and basic white were available), pastry fillings, other baking tins to purchase, cup cake liners, cute delicate decorations to place on top of your sweet creations, bags and boxes (for packaged goodies), piping tips and bags, molds for chocolates, and also available are edible images (you bring in pictures) and they will make copies for you to place on cakes. The lady was very nice. I will definitely repurchase the basic white buttercream! It is quite small. A lot of things were out of stock, but I didn't have any issues getting what I needed. Maybe this is just the busy time of the year. Who knows! I will continue to visit.

I liked the layout of the store and the fact that it shares space with a quirky vintage shop.

The mural along the wall next to the building is also a lovely local beaut. La!!

The nursery was packed with both old standards and new, unique varieties, which was delightful. I could have walked around for ages and I'm sure my family would say that I already did! The staff here is excellent- several staff members were able to walk me around and help me to find exactly the variety that would work best for me in several situations... and I'm pretty picky, as a landscape architect and horticulturist. It was like candy for me to be able to walk around with these experts and pick their brains on different qualities of each cultivar- I learned new things, which is always a win. In the end, I went home with a Baetzella peony that I had been searching for at a very good price, a great dwarf Japanese Maple (they have so many to choose from!), and a unique, funny little evergreen that they bred right there at the nursery. Especially if you're looking for a nursery with a great evergreen selection and a lot of knowledge, this is a must-see.

They refused to provide a list of vendors, contact information, or any previous information. The new crew has literally been driving out to farmers trying to find the vendors. PFC had been spreading false information claiming the market would be a mess and EBT tokens would not be available. THE ACTUAL IS THAT YOU CAN NOW TAKE OUT $50 in double up!!! The PFC is refusing to hand over any of the social media accounts.
