"Running on Thursdays from May through October from morning to midday, this Loop-based market is the longest-running farmers market in Chicago and is well known to those that work and live in the area. (Look for the famous unnamed Picasso statue — often referred to as “The Picasso” — and you’re there.) Berries in the early summer, gourds in the fall, this farmers market has a plethora of seasonal produce to pick from. It’s also a great place to grab a quick bite to eat while exploring downtown — and it’s perfect for people-watching. Make sure to go early and check out the “perfectly imperfect” boxes of malformed produce for a steal (as in, around $5)." - Vox Creative
