Fourth season of Grandmont Rosedale Farmers Market to begin June 4

Grandmont Rosedale Development Corp. will kick-off its fourth season of the Northwest Detroit Farmers Market on Thursday, June 4 from 4 to 8 p.m. The market features locally-grown produce, baked goods, antiobiotic- and hormone-free meats, flowers, landscaping supplies and hand-blended teas. Market manager Pam Weinstein of GRDC estimates approximately 15 vendors will set up shop each week.

A big change at the market this year is the ability for shoppers to use plastic -- whether that be credit, debit or EBT -- to purchase market goods. Also debuting: Grandmont Rosedale's new community garden will be selling at the market -- which may be just about the most-locally-grown produce ever.

The Northwest Farmers Market is located in the south parking lot of Bushnell Congregational Church, 15000 Southfield. It will be open
every Thursday through Oct. 15.
