There are only three market days left until the 2017 Farmer’s Market ends on October 26. If you haven’t yet been, now is a good time to go. The Northville Chamber of Commerce runs the market on Thursdays, from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m., at the corner of Sheldon (Center St.) and 7 Mile, across from Northville Downs. There are plenty of mums, corn stalks, pumpkins and fall vegetables, including peppers, Brussel sprouts on the stalk, eggplant and more. Crisp apples and juicy pears top the fall fruit selection. And you don’t have to visit a cider mill to get fresh apple cider and doughnuts. Many vendors are also selling Halloween decorations.
