Shopping local makes good sense.... and good meals!
Our Imlay City Farmer's Market offers fresh produce, healthy plants and wonderful homemade items. You will feel good about supporting Imlay City and the wonderful regional vendors that attend our market.
According to Scott Weber, Executive Director of Fair Food Matters, just spending $10 more a week on Michigan grown foods significantly boosts our state's agricultural economy! We have attached a produce availability chart at the bottom of this article to make planning your trip to the Market easy and productive.
