Join a growing farmers market!

The Menominee County Farm & Food Exchange, established in 2013, is composed of growers, small-batch food makers, craftspeople and community volunteers. Together we provide a weekly venue for the sale of local products directly to consumers.

Our market is held Saturdays from 9 a.m. to noon at the M&M Plaza in Menominee.

Through this market and our annual Old World Christmas Market, we promote locally grown products while providing a vibrant community gathering place.

Our vendors bring homegrown vegetables, fruit and herbs as well as farm-raised poultry and meat, eggs, coffee, honey, jams, baked goods, and wine to the market. They are joined by local craftspeople who offer homemade soaps and lotions, woodcrafts, jewelry and much more.

We are seeking farmers, avid gardeners, small food producers, hobbyists, and entrepreneurs to join us. Ideal candidates make, grow, raise, or somehow enhance what they sell.

Some items sold, subject to approval, may be from other local producers or they may be items related to your primary product if state law allows.

One of our goals is to help people find fresh, local food. The market facilitates various food and local food-access programs. Participation is encouraged but voluntary. If you sell food items you will definitely benefit: One farmer reported 40% of 2016 sales were the result of food-access programs!

Please note: Food products from Wisconsin home kitchens are not allowed at Michigan markets under the Michigan Cottage Food Law. 

In late 2016, we moved our market to the M&M Plaza, a centrally located shopping venue established in 1967. During cold weather (November through April), we are located east of the clocktower, inside the Mighty Pet entrance.

During warmer weather, usually May through October, we are located outside Jack’s Fresh Market.

If you are a grower, producer, food artisan or craftsperson who seeks a venue for selling your product, please visit us on market day, call us at (906) 639-3377, or email us at info.mcffe@gmail.com for more information.
