Tasting Tour at The Plant
This special open house will offer a rare peek inside some of the working spaces that aren't included on the regular tour. Participants will visit several food production spaces, where the owner of each business will give a brief overview of their products, space, and business, and samples will be offered.
The Tasting Tour coincides with The Plant's monthly market, so after you've gotten a look into the production spaces, we invite you to check out the market, where Plant tenants and several guest vendors will be offering a variety of products for sale.
The Plant is a 93,500 sq. ft. former meatpacking plant located in Chicago's disinvested Back of the Yards neighborhood. This facility currently houses over a dozen small businesses, including several aquaponic farms, a kombucha brewery, bakeries, a cheese distributor, a shrimp farm, and other complementary businesses. The Plant is striving to become a net-zero energy facility with its renewable energy system under development, including an anaerobic digester and combined heat and power system.
