They had lots of flowers, herbs, tomatoes, bread, desserts, and cheese to name a few. I hope to come back in the summer to see if they have more fruit options. All the stands accept credit They don't allow dogs btw which makes sense.

Removing 2 stars because today JUDY who is head of organizing this particular farmers market in…read moreStreeterville approached me and my service dog not just once but TWICE when my poor pyrenees puppy was doing ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! She had all her assistants harass not just me but other women who had their service animals with them. She Finally crossed a line when she grabbed me by my shoulder with an air of Authority to insist I keep my poor submissive dog on a tighter lead. I've been shopping here regularly and Judy intentionally harasses anyone with a dog ruining their shopping experience. I've asked the farmers here on numerous occasions if dogs are not allowed and why Judy holds so much aggression and contention for dog owners and they all told me they love dogs and they have NO ISSUES WHATSOEVER if a dog attends this market. My dog doesn't bark, never has "accidents " here, doesn't do anything destructive and if anything he tends to hide from strangers here who try to pet him. I'm allowed to have a dog here and Judy who runs Soar's makes everyone with a dog absolutely miserable. If you want to see a change perhaps write a truthful review of how you were treated while bringing your service dog here to this particular location! Soars is a 5 star experience but I'm deducting the two extra stars because I don't like complete strangers grabbing me by the shoulder especially now with monkeypox going rampant here! The flowers, fruits, vegetables, iced coffee and breads are wonderful here. If Judy is allowed to harass and grab us at will I'm not sure i feel safe here. I feel so sorry for my new puppy . Judy absolutely spoiled our shopping experience and she needs to keep her hands to herself

But it's situated rights at the Picasso of Chicago. Summer time vibes people just hanging out around the fountain and people watching. Pretty much standard fare for a farmers market. This one has a bit more jewelers and gift options. One thing I notice was the Raclette stand right in front of the Picasso. Mm... hot melt cheese! It's fun to watch too. Always fun stuff happening at Daley Plaza. Random house music parties, pop up shops, and sometimes protests. Always worth passing through when traveling through the loop. Always something fun going on and something tasty to eat.

Printer's Row Farmers Market! You could be like me and play the "I'm not at a bakers market, I'm at a farmers market" and try to stay strong to avoid the bakery stands...or you could you just go to town on almond croissants next to Yvolina's Tamales from 18th Street, set right next to a coffee stand, and then MORE PASTRY. This last weekend, I left with Ruby's Hibiscus drink reduction for the second time which mixes so well as a mocktail. I went to two produce stands and got myself a beautiful heirloom tomato and yellow plums. Life is good :)

This farmers market had everything you need from fresh baked goods, soap, vinegar, and Matcha tea!…read moreVery welcoming energy from each of the vendors. I'll plan on coming here again to try the tamales. So many great options to choose from however there should be a regulation on how fresh goods are displayed - served. Everything should be wrapped up individually or encased in some sort of covering. Many people were outside coughing dogs were shaking their hair which made getting the fresh baked goods un appealing because I literally saw hair fly all onto the fresh baked goods. Gross! Hopefully they can get some regulation in there because everything looked so good! There is parking around that area you will have to pay. Be sure to try the Matcha tea! I had the strawberry & mango Matcha it was delicious.

Shoppers can find fresh seasonal produce, plants, cheese, bread, cookies, bagels,etc. (Key word is "seasonal" with the produce.) I decided to take a walk down to the Federal Plaza Farmers Market to see what was fresh. Fresh Asparagus by the pound-you pick it-(out of the basket) and they weigh it! Leeks! Herbs! Peony flowers! I am looking forward to tomato and cucumber season. For now it is asparagus, fresh "Siam Queen" Thai basil from Smits Farms is of a much better quality with larger leaves than I have found in other places in Chicago. Plus reddish-pink peonies. Look for the Alexander Calder "Flamingo" Sculpture-then you know you are in the right spot! FYI-Not all vendor's from one market go to other Chicago City Farmer's Markets during different days of the week. Which makes it all the more interesting to market hop.

While I love the LP green city farmers market, it's incredibly crowded and if you have a car, good luck finding parking. This west loop location is smaller. There are fewer venders here than the other location, but there are far less people and finding parking isn't difficult at all. The park is also beautifully shaded and hilly. Clusters of tents are spread out a bit. You could miss a few if you don't walk around. As much as I love all of the bakery representation at the LP location, I will frequent the green city market in the west loop instead. It's so much less of a headache

The market only has a few vendors, but they are really great. I love going to look at the flowers and usually grab a pastry and coffee to take home. There are several produce and meat/egg stands, but I find everything to be a little too pricey for me to justify buying much. However, they do triple match Illinois Link! I wish the market had a few more vendors, as it gets crowded quickly and the lack of competition favors the high prices, but it is a nice thing to do each weekend. I appreciate that it is dog friendly so I can bring my dog with me to get some socialization in.

Everyone working there is so friendly, gives recommendations and will tell you all about their business. I highly recommend- the park and the booths are beautiful and a wonderful way to spend a Sunday morning!
