2026 Allen Farmers Market Summer Season

Join us at the Allen Farmers Market every Wednesday from 3 - 6:30 pm for seasonal produce, artisan baked goods, gluten-free baked goods, pasture raised eggs, local meat and fish, delectable cheeses, locally roasted coffee, dry beans, hot and ready-to-eat foods, and fun activities. In the summertime you can find over 25 food vendors in the side parking lot under the mural on Shepard and Kalamazoo Street, as well as the GreatRoom, at address 1629 E Kalamazoo, through the red double doors or side door on the mural side of the building.

It’s more important than ever to buy your groceries from local sources. Our supply chains for food are vulnerable and your support of the local food system helps strengthen it, while ensuring quality in taste.

All of our vendors accept cash transactions, or you can visit our Market Bank to swipe a debit/credit card or SNAP/EBT card in exchange for tokens to be spent with participating vendors. Fun fact, in 2005, the Allen Farmers Market became the first farmers market in Michigan to accept SNAP/EBT.

UPDATE ON DOUBLE UP FOOD BUCKS AS OF 7/14/26:

Double Up Food Bucks (DUFB) will match your SNAP purchase up to $50 per day. Meaning, if you charge your SNAP/EBT card at the Market Bank for $50, you will receive $50 in DUFB tokens as well. DUFB tokens are accepted with produce purchases only and there is no expiration on the tokens you receive. To learn more visit: https://doubleupfoodbucks.org/

Our market has always supported local, good food, but also has strong roots in having fun and providing a sense of place and belonging. We hope you will make it a habit to stop by the Allen Farmers Market on Wednesdays between 3 – 6:30PM and find community at the Market!

Don't forget to sign up for the Market Alert to have access to the most up to date vendor schedule and their offerings. ​
