Located in Northcenter Town Square, the Northcenter Farmers Market is one of the oldest markets on the North Side of Chicago. Farmers and local merchants will set up and offer their freshest fruits, vegetables, flowers, pastries and other handmade products for sale. We'll be open every Saturday June 22 through October 26 from 8 AM - 1 PM, with the exception September 21 (closed for Tiny Fest).
We will be accepting SNAP/LINK and offering LINK Match vouchers in 2024. If you use your LINK card at the market, we can match your swipes up to $25 with Link Match vouchers to be spent on fruits and vegetables, essentially doubling your purchasing power!
