(Their heirloom tomatoes are great, particularly chocolate tomatoes. Yes. Those exist.) Overall, their veggies are fresh and flavorful. (Their CSAs don't include fruit.) There are a lot of CSA boxes available from a lot of farms. Growing Home has a great business model and gives a lot to the Chicago Community by providing job training among other things. You can feel great about supporting this farm when you buy your CSA.

Cute little market at a cute little school. Nettelhorst school is covered in art which just makes…read morethis market better. It's small but good quality. There's typically one live performer playing acoustic music. Roasted nuts guy, a couple of bakers (French, American, and bagels typ.) large fresh produce and a florist. It's quaint and friendly. Lots of families. It's a sweet place to stroll through on a Saturday morning. I make sure to visit the chicken coop on the North side of the school and take in the many arts displays around the perimeter. The area has plenty of cafes, bookstores, etc. to enjoy too.

It's ok. I've stopped by a few times, and their produce tends to be ripe to overripe. Prices for…read moremost things tend to be a little higher than the Jewel across the street. I love stores like this, but I always feel like I'm paying a slight premium because they don't get the price breaks the larger stores get.

I stumbled upon this little grocery about 2 years ago and have kept coming back ever since for my…read moreweekly grocery needs- Love Love Love it! I always spend between $ 106-110 buying six to seven meat entrees specials along with fresh fruits and fresh vegetables and bread and cereal for myself and my two adult children. I do not often buy the household products as they are a premium but the food specials truly are special! This approach saved me 30-40% as my weekly bill at Jewel would consistently be $30-$40 more on any given week. Selection is limited here, but stick to the specials and you'll do great!

The choices are fresh and ripe. I like their produce better than Jewel. The chicken that they have without antibiotics or hormones is Purdue. They have angus ground beef. No self checkout but the staff is super friendly and helpful and it goes quickly. There is usually more than one cashier.

Agora Market has a parking lot, which is convenient in Chicago. They had a wide variety and selection, especially relative to the size of the store. The produce looked like it was typically good. There were prepared foods that looked good.

It's not as good as the farmer's market in the daley plaza, but I still got some delicious, fresh fruit here. Some of my favorite purchases this summer include peaches, blueberries, grapes, strawberries, and cherries. My boyfriend is a big fan of their banana bread as well. This market closes the last weekend in October so you still have 3 weekends to experience it! I may just have to try those fragrant honey crisp apples Danielle B raves about!

I like the local family farms that are represented and the helpful vendors that really care. The star of the market is the crepe guy.

I look forward to Saturday mornings to do the market and then brunch at Butch McGuires!!

This store has a lot of great things to offer, but management isn't one of them. Last night I did…read moresome shopping in the last hour the store was open. Upon checking out.. no cashiers were at a register. ONLY SELF CHECKOUT. A 70 year old or so women was also checking out. This poor woman could be your parents or an elderly person you know. The manager here wanted to save what $15 so another staff member could be stocking a shelf? Crazy. Absolutely insane. This store is pretty decent overall, but the levels of disrespect this shows for your own staff and your community is just unreal. Whoever staffed the store that night should be deeply ashamed of themselves. The stockholders are gonna be ok. Put a working staff member on registers at all times period. What if someone got injured? The self checkout here has a TINY spot to put your bag. Move the bag a bit and the scale freaks out. I can think of endless reasons for a cashier to be working at all times. Think of members of your community who need help if you run a FOOD STORE. Think of ways to improve your business rather than screwing customers. What about people who are neurodivergent and have disabilities? All to save like $100 a week. I bet they pull cashiers every night that last hour. What an F you to the people you sell to. TLDR: 9:30pm and NO cashier working a register. Elderly woman forced to use self checkout with a cart full of heavy items.
