Curwood Castle Park

It’s the return of the annual Moonlight Market, presented by the Owosso Farmers Market! Enjoy a fantastic evening of local shopping and entertainment in Downtown Owosso.

This well attended market is for one night only, featuring a curated lineup of specialty makers and small business owners from all over Michigan! Shop from over 50 specialty vendors and enjoy food and drinks from a selection of local food trucks. Enjoy interactive fun and entertainment for everyone by The Motley Misfits Circus Crew!

Celebrate the 100 year anniversary of the Curwood Castle with an interactive tour, check out the historic charm in the Comstock Pioneer Cabin and Woodard Paymaster Building, then experience the Shiawassee Arts Center. Enjoy Live Art Exhibits from Chazz Miller (muralist) and Glass Blowing from Lost Sailor Glass – presented by Quality Roots.

This event is produced and hosted by the Owosso Farmers Market, a locally owned business that brings in thousands of people to Downtown Owosso every Saturday. In addition to the weekly farmers market, OFM hosts a handful of artisan markets throughout the year to support our diverse creative community! Each event is free to the public to attend.

We cannot produce these events without sponsorship dollars. Business partnerships and financial sponsorships directly support these events, along with the mission of OFM – which sustains the positive economic impact we provide for the community. Every sponsorship dollar covers the large overhead that comes with hosting these free to attend market events, while keeping vendor prices sustainable and providing a positive community impact.
