Can’t wait for warmer weather and the return of the Ravinia Farmers Market this summer? Looking for a warm place to shop local, shielded from the elements, throughout the colder months? Want to discover exciting vendors offering fresh microgreens, handcrafted foods, baked treats, seasonal plants and artisan-made goods from local growers and makers, and a plethora of other finds?

Now you can do all the above, TWICE a week!

“We expanded to two indoor markets this season to keep the winter season experience strong and consistent while continuing to support our vendors and shoppers,” says market manager Ed Kugler. “Each location offers a cozy, community-focused atmosphere where people can connect with local food producers all winter long.”

The Ravinia Winter Farmers Market returns to Wayfarer Theaters (1850 Second St.) on January 10. This market will take place weekly on Saturdays from 10:30 AM - 2:30 PM through April 25.

New in 2026, the Ravinia Winter Farmers Market will expand to Braeside Market (55 St. Johns Ave.) on Fridays from 10:30 AM - 2:30 PM, and will run January 16 through April 24.
