The Hazel Park Growers and Makers Market is exactly the kind of grassroots, volunteer-run gathering that captures this city’s friendly, on-the-rise energy. Set in Green Acres Park, behind the Department of Recreation and along the walking path near the pavilions, it brings together local growers, cottage-food bakers, and makers for a relaxed seasonal market. It’s intentionally community-first — founded to celebrate Hazel Park’s diversity through fresh, seasonal food and neighborly connection — so expect a smaller, heartfelt market rather than a sprawling commercial one. A genuine slice of the Hazel Park renaissance, and a nice excuse to enjoy the park while you shop local.
