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 will be accepting SNAP/LINK and offering LINK Match vouchers in 2025. 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! Visit the Northcenter Chamber of Commerce info tent onsite to learn more.
