If you've been cruising by the spot at 6th and Washington in downtown Bay City where the city website says a farmers market has been operating for the last two weeks, wondering about the empty parking lot, rest easy. The Downtown Bay City Farmer's Market will open Thursday for its fifth year, said Jan Rise, market master. Hours are from 10 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. through June 21. After that the market stays open until 5:30 p.m. until school starts, then shifts back to 3:30 closing for fall. The downtown market also participates in the Double Up Food Bucks program, which allows Bridge Card holders to have up to $20 matched when they buy Michigan-grown fresh fruits and vegetables there. Participants can stop by the Market Master booth before buying their produce and for every $2 they spend, they are eligible to receive $2 in tokens, up to $20 each day.
