This is the BEST farmer's market! We go here for all our fresh produce and usually come home with pounds of food for a great price. Also features Detroit small-business vendors, artists, and sometimes even street performers. Surrounding the market are food trucks, outdoor patios (for warm days), and street murals to blow your mind.
