A List of Downtown Chicago Farmers MarketsAfter another long, cold, and dark winter in Chicago, the weather outside is [finally] starting to heat up, which can only mean one thing: farmer’s market season in Chicago is upon us! Whether you've lived in Chicago for years or are planning a move here this summer, there's nothing better than waking up and  taking a stroll through any of the city's neighborhood farmers markets. The colors, the sounds, the smells, and the people all make for a festive setting and there's no better way to support local farmers and artisans than buying some of the amazing goods you'll find on sale.
