Green Fair, Plymouth MI
The 2010 Plymouth Green Street Fair will be held on April 30th, May 1st & 2nd. This environment focused Fair offers something different for everyone. Everything from hybrid cars to organic food and everything in between. With consumption and production down due to the economy, we’ve actually seen more interest in Sustainability – especially when it saves people money!

There’s no need to drive long distances and park a mile away just to do your shopping. Plymouth also has beautiful residential tree-lined streets with lots of gorgeous historic homes making it one of the area’s prettiest small towns.

Sun & Snow Opening Soon in Downtown Plymouth
The ebb and flow of business continues in Downtown Plymouth as Sun & Snow takes over the old Parkside Gallery location on the corner of Ann Arbor Trail and Main St. This family owned and operated business will make a great addition to the range of shops and restaurants we already have. Sun & Snow will offer a wide range of sports and outdoors products – including skis which is especially timely for us since our son is learning to ski this year! The renewal of the downtown area is proving that our community has a strong foundation - even with the recession. Just stop by any of the bars/restaurants on a weekend evening and you’ll see that Plymouth commerce is alive and well. Look for Sun & Snow to open later this winter. For more information about buying or selling a home in the Plymouth or Northville area – please visit our homepage at www.bobbake.com. Or just give us a call or email: Carrie 734-788-2398 carrie@bobbake.com or Patrick 734-272-8375 patrick@bobbake.com.
