New Glencoe Farmers Market Open in Wyman Green

An all-new Glencoe Farmers Market, one of only two markets in the Chicago area including local, quality, sustainable organic produce grown by North Shore vendors, is open every Thursday from 3:30 to 7:30 p.m. through September 30. The market is held in Wyman Green, the open space between the suburb’s Village Hall and the Glencoe Public Library.

About 20 vendors will be selling a variety of produce, bakery items, pastas and organic items, with the market growing as the season progresses. Live music will be featured weekly, and market shoppers can enter a free drawing to win locally supplied and organic food products.

“This will bring a new opportunity for local, small businesses to share their merchandise with the Glencoe community,” says market manager Ed Kugler. “We’re excited to launch a brand-new market in downtown Glencoe. It’s been more than five years since a traditional farmers’ market was available to village residents, and we’re thrilled to be working with the Chamber of Commerce, the village and other local officials to make this event happen this year.” He has managed the nearby Ravinia Farmers Market, in Highland Park, since 2017.
