UPDATE!
Final Vendor List...see below
The Logan Square Farmers Market will be open for shoppers Sun., Nov. 22, at the same outdoor location as the summer market, along Logan Blvd. from Milwaukee Ave. to Whipple. Hours: 9 to 10 a.m. for high risk shoppers and 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. for all other shoppers.
Their first outdoor reboot last week was a serious test of many from vendors to shoppers. With a confirmed vendor list of 26 for the Nov. 15 Market, it started with 16 bold and beautiful vendors, due to the weather, reports Nilda Esparza, volunteer market manager and interim Logan Square Chamber Executive Director.
But Mother Nature took over. She hammered them with rain and whipped them with her winds and rain, dropping the vendor count to 10 then 9 and finally five!
"But 328 people shopped," exclaimed Esparza.
Everyone is hoping for a kinder Mother Nature this Sunday. So plan to take advantage of the farm to table offerings as well as the fresh baked goods and other items.
We will post their list here as soon as it is available.
Esparza said that they will be taking the following Sunday, Nov. 29, off. "I hope that when we will start up again in December, it will be at a new indoor space.
"We have several perspective locations and are working out details now."
In the meantime, put the Logan Square Farmers Market on your schedule for this Sunday, Nov. 22.
