This is the 17th season for Green City Market, the city's only sustainable green market, and 501(c)(3) organization. A proactive venue with 60 sustainable or certified organic farmers and thousands of shoppers, Green City Market features chef cooking demos, the Club Sprouts educational program for kids, a donor base that funds our outreach and educational initiatives, a dedicated staff of volunteers, an inviting ambiance, a sense of community and much more. Green City Market has formed a partnership with the Lincoln Park Zoo to plant the Edible Gardens in the Farm-in-the Zoo sponsored by John Deere. From that first year in 1999 next to the Chicago Theatre to the present time, Green City Market has morphed into a vital "green" Market at the south end of Lincoln Park that Alice Waters calls "the best sustainable market in the country".
