FRIENDS OF THE ALPENA FARMERS' MARket

This free event is made possible from a Youth and Rec Grant with help from FFA, Alpena Optomist Club, and many area businesses. On this day The Alpena Farmers’ Market takes on a carnival like atmosphere as it fills with families with children. The throng is entertained with live music and there are lots of free activities including petting zoo, veggie tasting, dunk tank, balloon animals,  hay rides, face painting, games, cider and donuts/cookies, drawing for bikes donated by Wal Mart, pumpkin decorating, vegetable tasting, fire trucks, ambulance,  and many other activities put on by area businesses and organizations.
