their best interest at heart. We
support them, promote them,
and encourage them to grow and
connect with customers.
We keep the market fresh
with fun events for the whole
family. The market is offered
year-round so it is consistent
for people and it becomes part
of their weekly routine. We
always have new vendors at the
market and encourage variety
so that our returning customers
always have something new to
see and support.
What advice would you
give to garden centers
considering adding a
farmers' market?
Research your area to see if
there is a need for a farmers'
market. When we started,
there was a demand for a
larger, more consistent farmers
market in our city. We also
scheduled our market to be on
Sundays instead of Saturdays
to not conflict with existing
larger markets that were in
neighboring cities.
It takes a lot of time and
effort to be creative with
events, to find new vendors,
COVID-19 Update
Currently, we are offering as
many options that we can so that
everyone feels safe and comfortable.
We provide weekly online ordering
for our customers and they can
pick up out in our parking lot from
participating vendors.
We also have extra product there
(lettuce, arugula, microgreens, eggs
and mushrooms) for people who
didn't have a chance to order or don't
know how to do online.
We are allowing vendors to set up
their tents and sell their products out
in the parking lot for the first time.
It's just a limited number - there
are about five of them. We are going
to space them far apart and they will
have their car parked next to the tent
so they can stay warm in between
customers!
We found that people either came
up to the tent and picked up their
order or they did like a farmers'
market drive-through, where they
drove past the tent, gave us their
order and we brought it to their car.
All online pre-orders were already
paid for; it was super easy for them to
pick up and be on their way.
We continue to adapt daily but for
now, this is what's working best for
The Great Lakes Farmers Market.
