Farmer’s Market Season!
One of the reasons I love summer… Farmer’s Markets!
Don’t get me wrong, I love Farmer’s Markets for the great produce and home made products. But I also love farmers markets because of all the great family friendly activities. The kids love going and it’s a different atmosphere than shopping at my local grocery store. (You can see below why I like to change things up in the summer!)
Here are 5 of my favorite Farmers Markets on the south side of Chicago. (Post below with some of YOUR favorite Farmer’s Markets!
- Frankfort (Sunday’s, 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM. Kansas & Oak Streets Downtown Frankfort.)
Great variety of vendors (all food) and nice open space to walk around or bike. Great place to grab some food and have a picnic.
- Tinley Park (Saturdays 8 a.m. to noon, June 7 to October 11, Zabrocki Plaza near the Metra Train Station in Downtown Tinley at 174th and Oak Park Avenue)
Tinley has a great variety of food and craft vendors. Check out Liv from Livnola for some great homemade granola and protein bars! I especially love the kids tent where they have a craft table and activity each week. (And not gonna lie, LOVED the handmade baby head bands too!)
- Palos Farmer’s Market ( Palos Heights Municipal Parking Lot @ 12217 S. Harlem Ave.Wednesday’s from 7am until 1pm. starting May 7 through October 15, 2014.
This FM has a weekly attraction for the kids; story time, face painting, music sing alongs. Two thumbs up!
- Oak Forest– New and improved this year. This summer, the Oak Forest FM has moved it’s FM to the Oak Forest Metra/CVS parking lot located at 159th and Cicero Ave, every Saturday, 7:00am until 12 Noon. Check it out!
- Homewood Farmers Market (Saturday’s from 8 AM to 1 PM, 2020 Chestnut Rd between Dixie Hwy and Harwood Ave),
With over 30 years of continuous operation, the Market is one of the best established in all of Chicagoland. Live music and family entertainment every week, and Green initiatives throughout the season
Happy shopping!
