This summer has gotten off to a chilly start, but you'll know it's summer in earnest when the Skokie Farmers' Market debuts on Sunday, June 16.
It also happens to be Fathers' Day, which might present a nice opportunity to dads and kids to spend time together--particularly if Dad likes to eat, or cook, or chat with farmers, or all of the above.
The Market will be open every Sunday through October 27, 2013. Hours are 7:30 a.m. until 12:45 p.m. The Market is located in the Village Hall parking lot at 5127 Oakton Street, Skokie.
The Farmers’ Market features fresh-grown seasonal fruits and vegetables, fresh baked goods, fresh mushrooms and cheeses, fresh cut flowers and plants and much more.
The market is sponsored by the Skokie Consumer Affairs Commission, which promises some new vendors this year. For more information on the Skokie Farmers’ Market contact Terry Oline, Market Manager, at 847/933-8224 or visit www.skokie.org.
