About the Market
Background
Now in its 11th season, the market has become a staple for local patrons in Zion, Beach Park, Winthrop Harbor, and Southeastern Wisconsin. Recognized by The Daily Meal as one of 2014's '101 Best Farmers Markets in America,' it continues to grow and thrive.
Practices
Operating as a 'rain or shine' market, it provides a reliable venue for local farmers and artisans to sell their goods. The market emphasizes accessibility and community engagement, offering easy walking access from nearby locations and featuring family-oriented activities.
The Rest
The market operates on Thursdays from mid-June to the end of September, from 11:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., at the intersection of Sheridan Road and Shiloh Boulevard. It includes amenities like an on-site ATM, a KidZone with story time, weekly online instructional hand-outs, and a monthly online newsletter called 'Fresh Earth.'
