Green City Market is a 501 (c) (3) not for profit organization celebrating our 19th anniversary. Chicago�s largest and first year-round sustainable farmers market, Green City Market provides a marketplace for purchasing sustainably grown food and connecting farmers and local producers directly to chefs and the greater Chicago community. Green City Market compliments the market with robust educational programs through our Edible Gardens, Club Sprouts, and Chef Demos. We strive to make the market a place where all Chicagoans have access to great healthy food by not only accepting LINK (formerly food stamps) but matching what shoppers spend on their LINK card dollar for dollar up to $15 per market.

There are a lot of great markets in Chicago, but this one has a great variety and also a wonderful community feel about it. Each market is an event.
I love buying local, love the farmers we meet and the fruits and veggies they offer. We are all for supporting our local farmers!
The Green City Market leds the pack in bringing together local farmers to an urban community. Without the GCM in Chicago, we are left with minimal opportunities to eat locally.... [more]
