The Rogers Park farmers market on Glenwood Avenue between Morse and Lunt has returned for a 13th season.

For the past 12 consecutive years, Glenwood Sunday Market has helped sustain the local food system and provided a significant revenue stream for local farmers and food producers: Last year, 20 participating vendors served 24,000 shoppers, and vendor fees were reduced to 25% of 2019's level as financial relief for local food producers, organizers said.

All vendors accept cash and the majority of them accept credit and debit cards. LINK Cards and other SNAP cards are also accepted at the market, with a grant match program continuing in 2022: Every $25 LINK transaction will be matched with an additional $25, thanks to the generous grant from LinkUp Illinois. Dogs will be allowed in the market area with leashes on short lengths. The market will be monitoring and following the city of Chicago's public health and safety guidelines.
