downtown howell: Downtown Howell Farmers' Market Opens Sunday - 04/29/15 04:19 AM
I guess it really is Spring!  The Howell Farmers' Market opens for the season this Sunday, May 3rd at 9am and runs till 2pm.  Open every Sunday, rain or shine on E. Clinton and State streets, around the historic Livingston County Court House.  Plenty of parking in the nearby municipal lots and streets.
The produce is a little light until some harvests come in, but there will be some greenhouse grown things, artisan goods, crafts and baked goods.  There's still plenty to see and do, so get in the habit and start the season off right.  See you there!

downtown howell: Lazy Morning in Downtown Howell - 04/26/15 09:25 PM
Yesterday, my wife and I visited downtown Howell, Michigan.  Our main reason was to get to the last of the Howell Winter Marketplaces - the indoor winter version of the Howell Farmers Market at the Howell Opera House.  Next Sunday, by the way, is the 2015 inaugural Howell Farmers Market adjacent to the Historic Livingston County Courthouse.
I bumped into a friend who has a small farm and was selling items there (previously unknown to me), and because it was a good, sunny, 'walking' day, we checked out some other shops.  We stopped in at Mom & Pop's Bakery, but since we … (2 comments)

downtown howell: Howell Farmers’ Market Opens May 4th - 04/23/14 06:09 AM
The Howell Farmers’ Market will open May 4, 2014.  On this second most important ‘opening day’ (after that of the Detroit Tigers, of course), there will be horse-drawn wagon rides along with the crafts, herbs, baked goods and garden plants – all from local vendors.
The Farmers’ Market is located adjacent to the Historic Livingston County Courthouse, generally the area around State and Clinton Streets in downtown.  Visit from 9am to 2 pm every Sunday from May 4th through the end of October.  Market goods shift along with the harvest, but there’s always something good there.
 
While in town, check … (0 comments)

downtown howell: Howell Winter Marketplace Open For The Season - 11/16/13 12:36 AM

The area Farmers' Markets are closed until Spring 2014, and while that means we’re not going to have fresh local produce, there are still some great options for local shopping. The Howell Winter Marketplace is one of those choices.
It is open 2 Sundays a month through April 2014, from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm.  Some of the items that will be available are fresh eggs and butter, baked good (including gluten-free products), jewelry, arts and crafts.  A new local coffee shop, Teeko’s, will also be on site to sell coffee. 
The Howell Winter Marketplace is at the historic … (0 comments)

downtown howell: Livingston County Real Estate Market May 16 2012 - 05/17/12 03:38 AM
The good news is that I've been so busy that I've let my blogging fall off.  The bad news is that I've let my blogging fall off. 
Generally speaking, the housing market is finally looking up!  I know you've been reading that the number of sales is down - and that's true.  But they're down because we have such a shallow inventory.  Almost every home that I've listed in the last 9 months or so has gone under contract within 15-25 days, had multiple offers and sold for above list price.  Short sales aren't included as they take longer and … (1 comments)
