Top 10 Flea & Street Markets in Michigan, United States
Think you need an ocean for a beach? Think again. There are miles and miles of sandy lakefront beaches in Michigan (thanks to the four Great Lakes that border it). The west coast of Michigan has especially nice beaches—try a rental in Muskegon, Grand Haven or Saugatuck. You won’t need a car when visiting Mackinac Island. In fact, they’re not allowed—this lovely Victorian resort town is pedestrian-only.

We look forward to the fresh locally produced produce at the Farmer's Market. Unlike in some communities where there are perhaps a dozen farmers or less offering wares, the Banks Street Market has dozens, plus an assortment of artisans offering a variety of items and foods locally produced. The market is a thriving, busy and, crowded area on Saturday mornings. Most of the vendors are repeat vendors from year to year and it is easy to form informal friendships and customer relationships with them.

What's not to love? They have fruit, veggies, and wine and cherry products from local growers/producers, plus some "exotic," i.e. non-local things, but mostly just good seasonal produce, milk, ice cream, and baked goods. Kids love to visit the barnyard to see the animals and play with the toy tractors/animals in the toy barn. They've been doing this a long time, and I appreciate that it's just good products, not a kitschy "experience" for sale (though you can stick your head in a wooden cutout of what may be a caricaturized farmer in the parking area and take a photo if you're into that)

Absolutely loved the Farmers’ Market. We stopped on a Saturday and were pleased with the vendors that were there....probably between 15-20. The fresh veggies we purchased were reasonably priced and all of the vendors were friendly and helpful. We also purchased masks and cinnamon rolls. Yummy! We decided to go back the following Wednesday. We were disappointed that only 6 vendors were there. One of the vendors said that Saturday is the big day and that some of the other vendors go to Oscoda’s Farmers Market on Wednesday. As luck would have it, the cinnamon roll person was there and we were able to purchase a whole plate of cinnamon rolls. Also we were able to get more fresh green beans! And the blueberry crumble pie my daughter’s boyfriend bought was out of this world! Definitely worth a stop to the Farmer’s Market if you happen to be in Alpena on one of the days they are open.

Been to Eastern Market many times. Saturday’s are pretty much guaranteed to be open, otherwise check their website. Tons of local food, sometimes clothing and jewelry. In the spring, if you are local, go for perennials. You can’t beat the prices - $5.00 for a beautiful Hosta that would be $15.00 at your local nursery. In spring go EARLY (like 7:00 am) for best plant selection. Also check out surrounding businesses like Rocky Peanut Company. A friend from Seattle said “this is way bigger than Pike Place Market!”

While some of the restaurants are a bit pricey, I love the variety of foods, arts, entertainment, and - of course - the availability of fresh produce. Only being open three days a week makes each day crowded. But I guess that adds to the liveliness of the place. I love the new space. It's a nice addition to the Downtown Flint area.

Because of Covid, arrive early as this market gets crowded! The staff was great as they controlled the flow of shoppers. Everyone was masked for safety. There was a good selection of perennials, shrubs and flowers for sale at very fair and often inexpensive prices. We purchased fresh berries, cherries, wonderful breads and scones. We also purchased a variety of masks for our kids and grand children. The vegetables looked wonderful. There are a variety of crafts available for purchase too. Everyone was nice and welcoming. This is definitely worth a weekend visit.
