Schaumburg Farmers Market Returns June 5

Schaumburg's 2015 Farmers Market-featuring locally-produced fruits, vegetables, baked goods and more-will open Friday, June 5 and run every Friday through the end of October.

The market, which is in its 35th year, will be open to the public from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. and is held in the parking lot of Trickster Art Gallery, 190 S. Roselle Road in Town Square.

The market includes locally-grown fruits and vegetables, meats, flowers, plants, and gourmet cheeses sold by the farmers that produce them. It also features decadent pastries, baked goods, olives, spices, homemade pasta and knife sharpening services. This family-friendly event also offers freshly-squeezed lemonade, kettle corn and snow cones made on site.

New to the market this year will be a booth with Master Gardeners from the University of Illinois Extension Service. The booth will be available once a month for market patrons to ask questions of these gardening experts.
