Near West Side Farmers Market 2019
Near West Side Partners is busy preparing for our third annual farmers market. This year, the market will be held at Harley-Davidson (3600 W. Juneau Avenue) every Thursday from 3:30 until 6:30 beginning June 20thand running through September 26.
The farmers market is a great, family-friendly event, hosting a variety of vendors selling products including fresh produce and homemade salsa. Food trucks and live radio broadcasts will provide entertainment and delicious eats!
We believe that it is important for residents to have access to healthy food options in their neighborhood. As a part of the Farmers Market, we will have a SNAP program for adults and a Power-of-Produce (POP) program for children. The SNAP program is for individuals with Wisconsin QUEST (EBT) Card, and allows cardholders to “double their dollars” – purchasing $20 worth of items for just $10 in tokens. The POP program encourages children to try new healthy foods by providing $2 in tokens each week to spend at the Farmer’s Market.
We look forward to seeing you on Thursdays throughout the summer. Invite your family, friends, and neighbors to enjoy the festivities!
