Still have some holiday shopping to do? The Metro Times & Detroit Mercantile Company Merry Market is one of my favorite ways to finish off my list, and support local small business at the same time. It’s a tradition my son and I love to share together, complete with lunch at Eastern Market.

The Merry Market will have over 40 makers and boutiques to shop from, including Detroit Manufacturing, Eastworks Detroit, Smith Shop, Corbé Company, Rebel Nell, The Detroit Marshmallow Co., McClary Bros., Slow Jams Jam, Tree Trunk Arts, Armageddon Beachparty Detroit, Hunt & Noyer Woodworks, Oh So Antsy and more!

Merry Market is this Saturday (Dec 10th) from 9am-7pm and Sunday (Dec 11th) from 10am-6pm at the Detroit Mercantile in Eastern Market. Hope to see you there!
