Dear Friend,
As we embrace the warmth and vibrant energy of the season, I wanted to share some valuable information that can enhance your summer experience while supporting our local community.
One of my favorite activities over the next few months is to visit one of the many local farmers markets across Chicago. This fresh, locally-grown produce tastes incredible, supports our local farmers, and helps reduce the carbon footprint associated with transporting goods across the country.
