St. Luke’s is once again hosting a Winter Farmers’ Market
 
on Saturday, January 23, 2016 from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.  in Henderson Hall.
 
Admission is FREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC
 
LINK cards accepted.
 
Enjoy a wide range of seasonal, sustainably-produced goods from LOCAL farmers and vendors.
Take home winter-available produce, meats, salsa, soup, honey and a variety of specialty items and homemade goods.
 
10% of proceeds go to the Farmer Crisis Fund. ((The Farmer Crisis Fund — Rather than requiring farmers to pay a fee to participate in these markets, Faith in Place asks them to donate 10% of what they take in at the market (after a threshold amount) to an Illinois Farmer Crisis Fund modeled after Wisconsin’s Harvest of Hope Fund which, for almost 20 years, has been giving monetary gifts up to $1,000 to farmers in crisis due to illness or unexpected expenses.))
 
St. Luke’s will again host an INDOOR Winter Farmers' Market, sponsored by Faith in Place, an interfaith environmental organization. Faith in Place’s indoor winter farmers’ markets provide small, local farm producers with additional venues to extend their income beyond the growing season. Through these markets, consumers continue to purchase farm-fresh items and cultivate relationships with local farmers beyond the summer farmers’ market season. Come and see how you can continue to eat locally, even during the cold winter months!
