Taste of Eastern Market

Cooking Demonstration Series
May - October Every Saturday (excluding Flower Day - May 16)
Shed 2
10 AM - Noon

Grab your fork because life is a feast at Eastern Market. From May to October our 26 week Taste of Eastern Market Series takes place every Saturday. This series guides spectators through the preparation of seasonal recipes and introduces shoppers to the rich bounty of fresh fruits and vegetables Michigan has to offer.

Featured chefs and nutrition experts instruct and perform demonstrations on the preparation, storage, preservation, and health benefits of food products found at the Market. Curious cooks watch chefs as they turn the Market's seasonal produce into simple and delectable dishes. The focus during the season is on healthy and nutritious food. Recipes are distributed during the demonstrations and the week's featured dish is cooked and sampled on the spot.
