There are many farmers markets across the country, markets with similar histories, businesses and devoted customers. But Eastern Market, founded in 1887, is Detroit's jewel.
This book not only focuses on the foods, but on the people--farmers, vendors, store owners, customers--they are the core of the Market's life. They are the focus of this book. Through conversations, interviews, and observations we wanted to capture the personalites of these "food people." They have much in common--long days, early hours, the vagaries of the weather, and knowing they are essential to their community. They each have a different story to tell, a recipe to share.

In this new edition of Detroit’s Eastern Market, authors Lois Johnson and Margaret Thomas recount the history of the market with additional stories and personal accounts of families who have worked and shopped there for as many as four generations. The authors have updated store hours and added new restaurants to their original listing of the numerous businesses that line the Eastern Market’s streets—and there is now a map to guide your Market adventures. Also with thirteen new recipes, Detroit’s Eastern Market features more than eighty pages of delightful recipes from market retailers, farmers, chefs, and customers.
