Summer is in full swing at this week’s Ravinia Farmers Market, happening Wednesday, June 28, from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Jens Jensen Park, across from the Metra Station. Join more than 35 local farmers and producers for early summer specialties including Michigan strawberries, cherries, raspberries and blueberries. Select from local and organic produce, featuring a variety of lettuce, kale, chard, arugula and other greens, carrots and early beets, peas, asparagus and other seasonal crops. Plan your week’s menu around our local produce, as well as artisanal cheese, tahini and humus, honey, condiments and pickles, breads and pastries, honey, desserts and other items. And be sure to pick some natural skincare products, healthy beverages and pet treats as well, and grab some crepes and popcorn to go! Also shop for custom-tailored women’s skorts and dresses, home decor items and a great selection of organically-grown vegetable starter plants, pollinator plants, annuals, houseplants and beautiful cut flowers and arrangements.
