About the Farmers Market

Now in its second season, The Farmer at The Green, presented by BMO, is downtown Chicago’s newest weekly farmers market. Shop for fresh, seasonal produce and locally made products from Chicago-based vendors and Midwest farmers. Conveniently located just south of Union Station, The Farmer at The Green is ideal for commuters and Loop/West Loop residents alike!

The mission of the market is to facilitate and support the growth of our local food system and to foster community engagement in downtown Chicago and the West Loop neighborhood. We are focused on building a great roster of farmers, local producers, and local processors.
