Bakers, it’s almost time…

… for the third annual Farmington Farmers Market Apple Dessert Bake-Off! October 10 is the date, so we’re a few weeks away. But it’s never too late to start looking through recipes, doing a run-through or two and tasting-tasting-tasting!

The Bake-Off debuted in 2024 as one of several special events the Market added to celebrate Farmington’s Bicentennial Birthday. Apples were a natural pick – they’ve always been an important crop in this area. And a dessert bake off – with more than pies – perfectly demonstrates their versatility.

Click here for more details on this year’s Bake-Off. And check back for any updates. We can’t wait to see what our bakers bring!

We are an award-winning market and a trusted source of healthy, local and sustainable produce. We offer a vibrant marketplace with music and special programs that create a nourishing community connection.  We are open rain or shine or snow from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturdays through November 7, at the Sundquist Pavilion at 33113 Grand River Ave. in downtown Farmington.
