Port Austin is a beautiful lake town that sits at the Northern point of Michigans Thumb peninsula. After quiet and cold Winters, the town comes back alive in mid May when the Port Austin Farmers Market opens for the season. The market fills with farmers from all over the region bring a wide variety of produce, meat, fish, cheeses, bread, baked goods, plants, syrups, honey, jams and more. Additionally, may vendors sell beautiful handmade crafts, art, and homemade body products, woven rugs – the list is endless. Every Saturday, customers, vendors, and locals enjoy live music and performances by local artists. The market also hosts several special events throughout the season including Kids Day where the Kiddos can freely set up a booth with to sell their products. Games, entertainment, and bouncy houses are free for all children and families to enjoy. Vendors and customers alike enjoy several other themed markets and contests. The Port Austin Farmers Market runs through mid October. Opening again mid May 2024, celebrating 19 years.
