Becovic is Proud to Sponsor the 2023 Uptown Farmers Market!

Posted May 3, 2023

Starting today the Market will be at Sunnyside Mall — the pedestrian stretch of Sunnyside between Magnolia and Beacon — every Wednesday from May 3 to November 1 from 2:30pm- 7:00pm (rain or shine).

Produced by Chicago Market, the Uptown Farmers Market is an independent farmers market that provides a place for farmers, producers and purveyors to sell their products directly to consumers, while providing Uptown residents with healthy, fresh, and locally grown food and other goodies.  Supporting small, family-owned farms and businesses, the Market also serves as a connection to the Uptown neighborhood.

The Uptown Farmers Market is supported financially by vendor fees, sponsorships, grants, and donations. Vendors retain all of their sales income; the Market does not receive a percentage of vendor sales.

The Sunnyside Mall space is a beautiful public pedestrian walkway that serves as much more than just a space for the farmers market. It’s a hub of community activities and engagement. Becovic’s Beatification Sponsorship keeps this space not only ready for the Uptown Farmers Market, but clean and engaging for the community at large by contributing to the supplies needed to keep it clean, maintained, and beautiful.
