The weekly gathering runs from 1:00 PM to 6:00 PM, making it convenient for shoppers planning their weeknight meals or weekend cooking projects.

The market accepts both credit cards and SNAP/EBT benefits, removing barriers for all shoppers in the community. Farmers markets like this one serve as a direct pipeline between local growers and home cooks, home gardeners, and food-focused shoppers. Unlike grocery stores, you're buying directly from people who grew what they're selling, which means fresher produce and the chance to ask questions about growing practices, harvest dates, or how to prepare something new. The regular Thursday schedule from May through late August captures Michigan's prime growing season, when vendors have the most abundant harvests to offer. You'll encounter everything from early spring greens and asparagus in late May to summer tomatoes, berries, and stone fruits at peak ripeness, then transition into late-summer squashes and root vegetables as August approaches. The Three Rivers location positions this market as a gathering point for the surrounding St. Joseph County area. The venue on West Michigan Avenue and Spring Street becomes a weekly destination for residents looking to support local agriculture while stocking their kitchens with quality ingredients. Whether you're a vendor looking to reach home cooks and food-conscious shoppers, or a shopper seeking the freshest seasonal produce your region has to offer, this weekly farmers market represents the kind of accessible, community-focused food marketplace that sustains both local farms and local food culture.
