As June begins and summer quickly approaches, farmers market season has revitalized across Chicago.
Though some markets have been open since April, others began their 2022 season this weekend, and many will continue into the fall.
In partnership with non-profit organization Experimental Station, the city will be continuing its Link Up Illinois program, which allows SNAP and Link holders to be credited up to $25 per card swipe at various markets.
Full detailed explanations on the benefits can be found on the organization’s website.
Here's a look at the 2022 Chicago City Markets and their dates:
