Guess What's New?

             THE LAYOUT, ITEMS, AND OUR PANTRY!

          Last weekend during the first, maybe second, snow of the season you  could find Jay, Carol and the Towners moving furniture!  The People’s Market has a new look.  The People's Pantry is official, and has a location of it’s own.  We are pretty excited.  We’ve got Berry Farms Sunflower Oil, PS salsa, Jams and Jellies from Gleb Farm.  You’ll find eggs again, and Cheese.  Fingerlakes Granola, Sugarbush Maple Syrup, and Pembroke Honey grace the shelves.  We continue to stock Dog Treats, and Verve, a healthy alternative to the energy drink market. 

Stop and say hello, and get a gander of whats new and enticing  at the People’s Market!

A dish cloth for Valentine's??

Yes men out there...buy your LOVE a dishcloth for Valentine's...but wrap a little something from the People's Market of Lansing inside it!! Yes that is what women really want...a little surprise and to know you thought of something special for them! Won't she be surprised when she sees the "dishcloth" you got her! When she unfolds it... a beautiful bracelet, necklace or earrings will fall out and you will fall back into her graces...and maybe her arms?? Have a Happy Valentine's with the one you love from The People's Makret of Lansing. Our 50+ vendors are hard at work creating one of a kind pieces for you for every occasion.

Whose Got the Cheese?

We do… the cooler isn’t brimming yet with cheeses, but we have a few samplings, and are placing an order for more Cheese.  From Finger Lakes Dexter Creamery we have Kefir Cheese, From Finger Lakes farmstead Cheese we have Gouda, and from Lively Run we have Chevre Goats Milk.  I think we had some cheddar and Swiss… who took the cheese?  Come often as the supply changes weekly!  And what goes great with cheese?  You got it a burger!  We have organic beef from Berry Farms!  Top it off with some salsa from PS, and dinner is waiting!

Add a Littlel Spice to Your Life!

Add a little spice to your life!  Visit the People's Market and taste one of the best salsa’s we’ve ever tasted!

Introducing: 
PS!  The Perfect Salsa!

     Patty Schenk in new to Lansing, but not new to Salsa.  Relocating in Lansing from the Buffalo area, Patty has been making salsa for years, and made Buffalonians crying for more.  We feel pretty fortunate to have Patty and her salsa at the market!  Our Pantry is growing!

Cold Feet, Warm Heart?

    Wrap your feet in warmth this winter.   We have close to 15 different  styles of Dahlgern socks… they are a  blend of alpaca, wool, and a bit of nylon… and easy to care for!  If socks aren’t your thing, consider a pair of boot liners.  You may have seen these at the Ithaca farmers market.  We have 100% alpaca boot liners to keep your toes toasty… And let’s not forget our fingers and ears!  We’ve got hats, mittens, ear warmers, fingerless gloves and scarves…We are open Tuesday through Saturday 11:00 to 6:00 and by chance on Sunday’s and Mondays!
