There’s two reasons why it’s sad that Farmer’s Market season is almost over in Chicago. The first is obvious: you only have a little bit left before there’s no more fresh fruits and vegetables. The second is a it sadder: before you know it, it’ll be 5 degrees outside.
Before it all ends, though, Whole Foods South Loop is putting on two great events revolving around the Farmer’s Market. On September 18th, you can meet the director of the 61st St Farmer’s Market, who’ll provide info on properly shopping your local market.
Then, on Sunday the 20th, visit the corner of Roosevelt and Canal for a South Loop Farmers Market.
USE YOUR U-PASS: This is an easy one for students living on South Campus, who should just take the Roosevelt bus. For everyone else, there’s Google Maps.
