This annual conference reaches farmers market managers and community-driven marketplace partners with information about the emerging trends in the Michigan farmers market community. Cornerstones of the conference include ample networking opportunities, a keynote speaker, roundtable discussions, and great local food.
MIFMA is restructuring some of our educational programming to meet the needs of our community-driven marketplaces. The Michigan Farmers Market Conference will be moving to a biennial format. That means the next conference will be held in 2027.

The Michigan Farmers Market Conference provides a unique opportunity to demonstrate your support of community driven marketplaces in Michigan and the people who work hard to make them happen. It’s thanks to local food champions like you that we are able to continue to fulfill our mission of placing equity at the forefront of supporting the viability of community-driven marketplaces so that they can connect ALL consumers to local farms and businesses.
We look forward to sharing information about the 2027 conference in late fall 2026.
