95th Street Farmers Market Opens For 2021 Season

CHICAGO — The 95th Street Farmers Market is now open, rain or shine, in the Rock Island-Metra commuter lot at 95th Street and Longwood Drive. The farmers market, organized by the 95th Street Business Association, runs every Sunday through the end of November and will be open from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m.

COVID-19 guidelines require all markets to operate as “Grab and Go." Face masks are required and will be available at no cost; all patrons receive an application of hand sanitizer upon entry. Patrons are asked to access the market from the east entrance.

While on-site consumption of food is not permitted, Andy’s Sunflower Café will be offering freshly brewed coffee and other beverages. Sweet Freaks will be making crêpes for carry-out from the market. Organizers hope to offer live entertainment and children’s activities later in the season as vaccination rates increase.
