Farmers Market Kickoff

Join us for our Farmers Market Kickoff celebration on Friday, June 28th 3-6p on Comer Crops Youth Farm across from Gary Comer Youth Center at 7200 S. Ingleside Ave. Hosted by our Comer Crops youth farmers, culinary apprentices, and engagement interns. We’ll be giving farm tours, meeting our chickens, picking our own produce, painting fence murals together with professional artists and various community art organizations like Pigment, Paint The City, Englewood Arts Collective to name but a few. Come hear some great music and celebrate our wonderful farm and youth farmers together! We’ll be cooking up pizzas in our brick oven, baking cookies, giving out grocery totes, and garden gifts like seeds, herbs, and plants to our special guests. Please RSVP and let us know if you have any accessibility needs. We can’t wait to kick off another season of bringing healthy food access and equity to our community with you! Thank you for sharing this with your family, friends and fellow farm lovers. If you can’t make it and want to support our youth farmers, consider donating on our website.
