Evanston IL is a great community driven city that appeals to young professionals, families, retirees and everyone in between! Whether you’re drawn to quite, tree lined streets with established homes or enjoy the hustle and bustle of living in the center of it all; you’ll find that each lifestyle greatly contributes to Evanston’s unique vibe.
One of the reasons we, as The Thomas Team, have loved living and working in Evanston for a number of years is because of the great community environment and the city’s commitment to the residents and to creating an ever-improving metropolis. Evanston does this through a wide variety of ways, one of which is the popular farmers markets.
Now you may have visited the farmers markets in the area this past summer, but have you gone yet this winter? The Friends of Evanston Farmers Market, who seek to educate the public about the benefits of eating fresh, locally-grown foods, and advocate greater access to healthy food for all community members, regardless of means has rallied to bring about the first ever indoor Farmer & Artisan Food Market in Evanston!
This weekly market, taking place on Saturdays from 9am to 1pm at The Ecology Center in the Ladd Arboretum is free and open to the public and is a great way to interact within the community. One of the goals of the indoor market is to allow farmers to continue on with selling their goods directly to residents throughout the winter months. Things like sauces, pickling products, soups and salsas give the farmers a chance to expand on their produce! Local food artisans are also given the opportunity to sell their delicious products.
If you have not yet visited the indoor market, which is open through April 28, you’ll want to do so! Gather friends and family and stroll through the market to pick from fresh produce, meats, locally produced cheeses, coffee, pastries and much more! A roaring fire adds to the ambience of the market, which is sure to be a favorite winter destination for Evanston residents. This is also a great way to give back to the local farmers and artisans within the community.
