MARQUETTE, Mich (WZMQ) – Marquette’s farmers market is offering an exclusive new membership to the first 100 people. Tomorrow morning at the Marquette commons at 9 am to noon, the memberships will be open to the first 100 people to come.
This membership cost a minimum donation of $100, $105 if paid with credit/debit card, and provides the members with perks and rewards. As well as all donations go back to the market for funding future improvement’s for the community.
“Helping vendors increase their sales, placemaking — were gonna look at using some of this money to actually have placemaking like picnic tables and benches at the market that people can hang around,” said Brian Shier Farmer’s Market Manager.
At this event they will be educating people on the new membership and what specifically it will offer as well as farmers market merch like shirts, tot bags, and stickers to purchase.
Shier is excited for this upcoming market season and hopes the community is also excited and ready to support our small local businesses.
