The Flint Farmers Market

The Flint Farmers Market offers more than just food; it also fosters opportunities for people and contributes to the revitalization of the city of Flint. The Market provides a space for collaboration that inspires people from all areas to share their business ideas and create new ones. In addition to its diverse food options, the Market also offers a variety of non-food items. According to Gwen Pearson, the Market's social media assistant, "many small businesses get their start at this market. It gives them a chance to make a name for themselves and provides the tools they need to branch off and open their own local stores.”
