For vendors like Golden Rise Bakery, a family-owned business that has been coming to the Logan Square Farmers Market for 16 years now, it was worrisome when the market was initially canceled for this week.

"It was pretty rough to hear that we wouldn't be doing it, because this is a lot of my income. This is her whole livelihood. So, it was very scary to think about it not happening. But, we're very happy that it's back on," said Maya Ybarra with Golden Rise Bakery.

Organizers said the market is just getting too big. It has been growing in size and popularity, and the city needed to close streets to make it safer. "We are just getting way too busy," said Logan Square Chamber of Commerce Executive Producer Nilda Esparza. "Volunteers are coming back, but it's just not enough. The cars were just moving way too fast. There's a big cloud of confusion at the entry, figuring out, can we drive through there? Can we not? And so we just wanted to nip it."

After discussions late last week, city leaders finally came to an agreement to close Logan Boulevard between Milwaukee and Sacramento on Sundays from 6 a.m. to 4 p.m. to make Sunday's event possible. "The mayor, alderman, we all came together. There were some tough disagreements, but we had to keep pushing," Esparza said."We have small businesses, entrepreneurs that are providing a service to the people of Chicago," Johnson said. "One of the ways we are going to build a better, stronger, safer Chicago is by coming together. This is a clear display of who we are as a city.
