Fresh FOOD! (and drink :)

All of us can very easily go to our local Meijer, Walmart, Target, etc to buy groceries. And, of course it's always great to shop at those stores...after all, they employ our friends, family, neighbors, etc. However, there are other places to buy vegetables, fruit, bread, plants, flowers and even beer.

Detroit's Eastern Market: Every Saturday you can find great deals on vegetables, fruit, bread, plants, flowers etc.
