Detroit Eastern Market

Eastern Market has been around longer than I can remember. People come from all over the state of Michigan to buy and sell fresh food, including live chickens. When there were virtually no other farmer's markets to go to, Eastern Market was there for us. It has served generation upon generation. As children we would enjoy going there and now our grandchildren enjoy the market. It has now been completely renovated and it's a great way to spend a day (it takes that long to get through it). I've spoken to people who have visited Michigan as far away as Texas, and one of the places they visited that they most enjoyed was a trip to Eastern Market. It has become nationally known and deserves national recognition.
