The dates have been released for the Daley Plaza Market and Maxwell Street Market farmers markets, kicking off in May. It officially feels like the cold is gone when we start getting these kinds of announcements, so let's all hang onto the promise of warm weather soon. With flowers, seasonal produce, prepared foods perfect for lunch and hand-made products, it'll be farmer's market season soon. Spring and summer weather is really just around the corner.
We can't wait to get our hands on tacos from Rubi's at Maxwell Street Market without worrying about how cold it is or serendipitously buying a bouquet of flowers to bring a special bit of warmth into our apartments. Check out the dates below and mark your calendars for this upcoming farmers market season.
