There are several different "sheds" which are basically huge barns that house tons of different local vendors--everything from produce, plants, ready made food, apparel, sweet treats, handmade crafts, coffee and other drinks, etc. We had a blast looking around each of the sheds and saw lots of interesting items. We didn't end up buying anything, but I would love to go back again. The market is open on Saturdays year round, and even in the coldest January weather there were a lot of people there! They have extended hours in the summer months. One of the best parts of visiting the market was the ample free parking in their lots. We also had fun exploring the neighboring shops and restaurants! If you like a good farmers market, be sure to add Eastern Market to your list to check out.

They have such a great variety from ready to eat food to fresh butchered meats, dried legumes, fresh flowers, clothes, crafts, and more. Its's an experience! You can't go wrong with ANY of the ready to eat food. I had a life altering chicken hand pie. It's got a cool industrial vibe. Dress warm!

My review is about this venue as an event space…read more I attended a networking event at the RO Farmers Market on last week. I was first pleased with the parking. There's parking surrounding the building as it shares lot space with the municipal offices of the city. It's quite a large space, great for expos, fairs, etc. I could even see it as a wedding venue; which it likely is. The are food services spaces and bathrooms inside of the building, and a nice outdoor sitting/dining space.

Farmington Farmers & Artisans Market hosts a wide variety of wonderful vendors. It has a number of…read morefarmers who provide fresh chicken and duck eggs, fresh fruits and vegetables, and a beautiful array of flowers. Some farmers specialize in organic vegetables, and there are some who offer vegetables and mushrooms used in Asian cooking. There are a number of bakeries represented, including Cannelle's, which offers fresh banquettes and sweet and savory pastries. Ground Control serves delicious coffee, hot and iced. Try my favorite, the iced vanilla latte. It's to die for. The artisans in the market sell items made out of wood, beads and ceramics. There are lovely wooden bowls and cutting boards, jewelry, pottery and even soaps and perfumes, just to name a few. There is even an artisan who sharpens knives, scissors and other blades. My family has a CSA with the Goetz Farm so we're at the market every week to pick up our box of fresh fruit and vegetables. I can tell you this market is very popular and well attended. It's a great place to grab a cup of coffee and a donut and sit down to enjoy the parade of adults, children, and dogs passing by. During the market season, there are several celebrations. I'm particularly fond of Halloween when kids, adults and dogs come in costume. I've been to a lot of farmers markets in my time, and Farmington Farmers & Artisans Market is still my favorite. Check it out for yourself.

For years we stopped at Ronnie's for beef; Randy's for sausage and Wigley's for corned beef brisket. It still has the same great atmosphere, years later. The aroma is positively addicting. I truly believe I became a butcher for a couple years as a result of coming here as a kid. No matter where we stop or who we speak to we have always been treated like family. While it's ridiculous to mention it, the prices are higher in here. If you don't like that, you probably need to be meat shopping at Walmart. 11/24

My daughter and I had a great time watching the animals and sharing the wait for fresh cider and donuts with lots of other folks. It was great to see families and lots of kids outside. I'm so happy to see this type of business inside the city and being supported by so many in the community. It's good to see so many folks getting outside given all that's keeping us inside. I look forward to seeing how this business blossoms.

I only stopped by after seeing a sign for a farmer's market on Saturday morning while I was at Bommarito Bakery. This is a cute neighborhood garden nursery. You will find garden supplies inside and a nice selection of plants outside. It is worth the stop if you are in St. Clair Shores, especially on the weekend when there is the small "farmer's market" with very fresh-looking fruits and vegetables.

The Ann Arbor Farmers Market is solid overall, with a few caveats that come with the territory…read more Parking isn't great, but honestly, if you're expecting amazing parking in Ann Arbor, that's on you. It's part of the experience. Come prepared to walk a bit and you'll be fine. The vendors clearly put in a lot of effort. You can tell there's pride in what they're offering, and the market itself has a good atmosphere. That said, I didn't really find anything I needed or couldn't live without this visit. The items were fine, just not quite what I was hoping for. I do wish the vendors could get a little more bang for their buck, whether that's higher traffic, better layout, or stronger buyer energy. The effort is there, and it deserves to be rewarded. All in all, it's a nice stop, worth checking out, and still a good market even if it wasn't a standout haul for me this time. Four stars.
