Farmers market season in West Michigan – a time of year when residents and guests alike can enjoy a tremendous variety of produce, meat and dairy products from local farmers. Michigan is second only to California in the diversity of its agricultural crops, and West Michigan is one of the state’s most fertile growing regions. Our Fruit Ridge, a unique topographical feature just minutes from downtown Grand Rapids, produces more apples (by far) than anywhere else in Michigan, which is one of the nation’s top three apple-harvesting states.

Many family farms and orchards sell their goods at local farmers markets from mid-spring to late fall. Most local cities (and even a few neighborhoods) host their own markets, so you’re never far away from the opportunity to shop for fresh produce and local foods, and ask questions of area growers.

Here are a few of our favorite farmers markets – starting with the grandaddy of them all, which is a year-round treasure trove – segueing into a day-by-day guide. You can shop West Michigan farmers markets 7 days a week in season!
