At the Metro Health Farmer's Market, not every booth is farm produce - some are fine crafts, coffees and spices, offering shoppers a variety of local goods to choose from.

Now that the weather has finally shifted to preferable human conditions, it’s time to get back into the rhythm of summer. A welcome change for sure starting with the fresh sights at the Metro Health Farmer’s Market.  Be sure to check out the local produce, goods and services every Thursday from 9 a.m. until 2 p.m. in Metro Health Village. And if Thursdays don’t work with your schedule, Metro Health has added a second farmer’s market at Aquinas College on Mondays from 2:30 to 6:30 p.m. in the Brown Center parking lot. Now you have two chances and two locations to shop fresh and buy local!
