Update, Aug 2025 This year they have almost all of the exact same vendors with all of the exact same products. I work and live downtown in the biggest complaint I hear is that it's the same old same old stuff. Whoever is the manager or director of the farmers market should really step it up. You should have different vendors every other weekend or something. Because I go every Saturday and I haven't bought one thing since I've lived here since March of 2024. They don't offer not one thing that I would purchase. And I haven't purchased anything. I try to find something to purchase but it's the exact same stuff. Nobody has the freeze dried candy. Where's the lady who has the beach glass pictures? It be nice to see something you need or a mixture of different things.
The farmers market is set up really well. However, there aren't very many options for vegan or dairy free. Also, strawberries are about $6 here and $1.25 at Meijer's a mile away. So far, I have been twice and I haven't bought anything. It's a little disappointing but there are plenty of vendors...a whole lot of the same stuff.

The South Haven Farmers Market is an absolute gem and a must-visit for anyone in the area! Set in the heart of a beautiful lakeside town, this market offers the perfect mix of fresh, local produce, handmade goods, and small-town charm.
Every vendor we visited was friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about what they were selling. From just-picked blueberries and heirloom tomatoes to artisan breads, cheeses, and handcrafted soaps, everything felt thoughtfully curated and high quality.
What really makes this market shine is the atmosphere. Live music often plays in the background, kids are laughing with kettle corn in hand, and locals mingle with visitors like it’s a weekly tradition — because for many, it is.
Easy parking, great variety, and a relaxed, welcoming vibe. Whether you’re stocking up for a picnic, looking for unique souvenirs, or just want to soak up the community spirit, this market hits all the right notes. Five stars...
Read moreWe attended last year in September and thought I would write a review about it. We really enjoyed it so much and I can't stop thinking about our purchases. The Petoskey rocks were a big hit with our grandchildren for Christmas. My best purchase was the Sea Glass Necklace from "The Beach Guy". I do not see him on the list for this year but wish I could purchase more pieces of jewelry from him. He made good quality jewelry out of beach/sea glass. Have not been able to find any like this from Lake Michigan...
