Dearborn Farmers Market

Among a wonderful variety of goods, 2020 vendors will be selling food, body care products, plants and flowers and pet-friendly goodies. Due to current COVID-19-related Michigan Department of Agriculture and Rural Development guidelines, at this time, the Market is unable to offer any artisan-crafted items. 

Cooking demonstrations with Edible WOW will air monthly and include family-friendly recipes community members are encouraged to make with fresh ingredients purchased at the Market. Learn more via the Farmers Market website and Facebook page. 

Movies in the Park

Movies begin after dusk, with the film starting as soon as the night sky allows. To follow ongoing social distancing guidelines, Downtown Dearborn staff will assist attendees in arranging enjoyable views while remaining socially distant and monitor on-site activity to maintain a safe number of participants. The public is invited to bring a lawn chair or blanket and settle in for a fun night. 

“With the lifting of the stay-at-home order, we’re happy we can bring back these family favorites to Downtown Dearborn this summer in a manner that is safe and comfortable for our guests,” said Cristina Sheppard-Decius, executive director of the East and West Dearborn Downtown Development Authorities.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and a commitment to keeping the community safe, Downtown Dearborn officials made the difficult decision to cancel several popular summer events, including Friday Nites Music and Foodie Rallies, Tunes at Noon, Jazz on the Ave, Music in the Park and Kids Day at the Market.
