FLINT, MI — The new location of the Flint Farmers’ Market is expected to open by the end of May, and when it does, it’ll be full.
All the vendor spots on the ground floor are set to be occupied when the market opens. There’s still about 10,500 square feet to rent out upstairs, which could be used for anything, including office space, the market managers said.
Regular market customers will recognize names from the market’s current location but will also see some new ones as well — including some new places to eat.
There will also be two new commercial kitchens available to vendors as well as entrepreneurs at the market, and another demonstration kitchen where cooking classes and other events can be held.
Officials from the market recently released a full list of their indoor vendors. Check it out below. (Note: Some vendors fall into more than one category and may be repeated. Officials have not yet released a list of farmers or outdoor vendors.)
