Outdoor Season Draws to a Close - 2 Sundays left!
|
|
We just have two weeks left of our second outdoor season! On one hand, it seems impossible that the spring and summer have turned to autumn and that its time to go inside for awhile. On the other hand, it will be nice to have a Sunday morning or two when I get to sleep past 5:00 a.m.!
Another thing that's amazing me is that this is just the second season of the Market. I don't know about you, but I feel like I've been getting together on Sunday mornings with the farmers and food artisans and all of you shoppers for much longer than these 40 weeks we have spent out on Glenwood Avenue. I hope that is your experience too.
Of course, we had some tough weeks this year. Lots of rainy Sundays made for some days when we were so pleased to see you to venture out. Overall, the vendors have been so pleased with the wonderful Rogers Park community again this season.
Let me just say thanks, too, for engaging in the many market-related activities we put together this year from Hog Wild and the Ice Cream Social to SQUASH! and Talk Like a Pirate to Wellness an Pet Days. We all hope that these events put a little extra excitement into your Sundays and we will continue with more fun things to see and do next year.
Our Winter plans continue forward with a few hiccups. We are thrilled to be able to have our Holiday Markets at The Glenwood Bar on November 13, 20 and December 11. Still looking for a January - May site. And we're going to add a special new Holiday event in December, too...more on that next week, but it will definitely be a humdinger!

People are saying.....
“The Glenwood Sunday Market is a huge asset to our community. It brings fresh farm food (and farmers!) to our extremely urban neighborhood, increasing awareness and accessibility of food-related needs and issues. It also has created a HUGE positive energy throughout the community and is really bringing people together!”
