A Slice of Eastern Market Comes to Pontiac Every Week
Here in Pontiac, we’re enjoying a refreshing change! A fresh produce market, akin to the beloved Eastern Market from Detroit, is being provided to us every Thursday through to October.
This happening is making a major buzz, thanks to a partnership between a local hospital and city officials. The goal? To increase the availability of fresh, healthy produce within our bustling city. A different variety of produce will grace the market each week, making every visit a new adventure.
This fresh produce market operates from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. It is comfortably situated in front of a popular corporate building on Saginaw Street, just south of Huron Street, right in the heart of downtown Pontiac. The convenient location ensures that no resident is left out in access to fresh fruits and vegetables.
The power of having access to fresh produce to boost overall health is no secret. In fact, this produce market is the city’s concerted effort to create a reliable, regular offering of fresh fruits and vegetables. The bustling excitement that is characteristic of the Eastern Market further adds a special touch to the whole set-up, enhancing its appeal, especially to the local community.
Authorities and officials involved in bringing this initiative to life appreciate the yawning gap this fresh produce market is filling. The city’s top leadership acknowledges that making this healthy bounty of fresh fruits and vegetables as accessible and convenient as possible for our Pontiac residents is a key objective.
So, residents of Pontiac, let’s embrace this gift, experience the unmatched freshness of farm produce, and take a step towards healthier lives each week. Cheers to our very own slice of the Eastern Market!
