Our Farmers Market Guide is presented by Advocate Condell Medical Center

One of my favorite things about spring is the variety of farmers markets that open. Not only can you buy incredible fresh produce, flowers, and baked goods, but there are so many other awesome finds at the markets. I love visiting multiple markets, so I’m glad they are offered on different days and times. Make a point to visit one of these Lake County farmers markets and enjoy the yummy food, fun entertainment, and great stuff to discover and purchase.
