Ubly Farmers Market
Last year, Ubly welcomed their very own, and first, farmers market! The idea for a farmers market came about when some members of the community thought about having a small market for crafts. After some discussion, the community felt that Ubly could use a farmers market, especially since the area no longer has a grocery store.
The farmers market will take place on Saturdays starting late May 18th through mid-October. The market will open Saturday mornings at 9 am at Veteran's Memorial Park in Ubly, and will run from 9 am to 1 pm.
Right now, the market has approx. 17 vendors ranging from foodstuffs like fresh produce and baked goods, in addition to crafts, woodworking items, crocheted items, pet stuff, and more. The Ubly Farmers Market is a brand new event for the community of Ubly and we look forward to helping them launch. Be sure to stop by to show your support!
