Outdoors on…read moreweekends there are a few actual farm market vendors- I bought some delicious fresh Michigan tomatoes there last weekend. And a farm fresh beef vendor was there, who I hope to indulge next weekend. But those two were the only two outside on a sunny Saturday afternoon. Indoors, your you're met with a strong smelling potpourri, because several vendors there are selling homemade candles or potpourri or idk it just made my allergies start dripping. Most all indoor vendors appear to be seniors looking for something to do...there's one craft lady who's trying to sell a wall full of the most gawdy wreaths I've ever seen, another selling crochet kinda towels/linens...a "leather lady" selling vintage Harley leather vests and crap, wildly overpriced. A jewelry gal selling homemade jewelry that's just...not attractive, especially for prices she's asking. It's like stuff my daughter made in day camp, back in the day. Then, of course, there's the candle/ potpourri lady and yet another vendor who seems to think she can (laughably) paint flowers and such on a wine glass from Dollar Tree and charge a (laughable) amount of money for that. So glad these ladies have something to do, but what they are doing is lame. So much better could be made of this place, even as the venue they've intended. They have NO CLUE how to attract and retain really good vendors. CLEARLY! These folks are a joke. And it pains me to say that, because I'm a local, and I want to see this venue succeed. I'd buy it if I could!

We love this farm market! My flower baskets are beautiful in my yard and every bakery item we…read morepurchased was delicious!. I love the fried pies! We always stop by Murry's Farm Market when we are in Lake City or going to Merritt Speedway, and walk away with food or flowers and we always feel we get our monies worth. Tim and Laura are very knowledgeable about gardening tips and plants and have held their prices. Two years ago we purchased a deer blind and a chicken coop and haven't had a problem with either of them. Last month we purchased a 12 x 28 cabin, not only did we get a good deal, but the delivery was prompt and they placed our cabin perfectly on its blocks. Stop by and see Tim and Laura, it's a great place to shop! Steve and Debbie Kimball Kalkaska, MI.

As a tourist, there are plenty of goodies for you to enjoy and take back home.

The market layout is really spacious, and there's ample parking just west of the market (plus plenty of street parking). It is a pet-free zone.

Our 'packing peanuts' appear to be 2 bonus Olive Egger pullets. The best part of ordering from Rainbow Hatchery was our experience with owner, Stephen. He always answered my questions promptly and graciously and kept us updated as our order progressed and moved to the 'front of the line.' He has continued to be available to answer questions. Everything was done exactly as he promised it would be. We have only great things to say about this hatchery and the quality of their product. We would buy from them again in a heartbeat!

Much of menu is grown on the working farm, or comes from the surrounding area of Leelanau. And the lettuce just tastes better. Farm to table also means the menu is ever changing. There are a couple of staples, kale ceasar, chicken torta, beans and broth, their farm board, and of course their home made corn nuts. While beans and broth is simple, our group loves it, homey and flavorful, with their perfect greens side salad. I have generally ordered whatever the fish dish offering is, and it's also been amazing. They also recently opened their market, a bit of an expanded market from the small shop inside the restaurant, as well as sandwiches and bakery items. They have a few small tables. The restaurant does not do reservations. It's usually warm when we visit (this year was an exception) so we don't mind the wait as the long yard is lovely, with seating and a drinks and snack counter.

With such an unassuming menu, you would never even know they served sandwiches.
