Kids can set up shop at the Cicero Farmers Market
Have a young maker, baker, builder, or budding entrepreneur at home? The Cicero Farmers Market wants them!
Every Saturday morning from May through September, Cicero Community Park comes alive with local produce, fresh flowers, baked goods, food trucks, music, and this season, a growing Kids Market for creators ages 5 to 17. It’s a fun, confidence‑building chance for kids to set up their own booth, sell something they’ve made, and learn what it’s like to run a small business in a supportive community setting.
The market is looking for a few more youth vendors for the June 13 market, and there are two additional Kids Market days this season:
- Aug. 1: Farmers Market + Back‑to‑School Bash Kids can play bingo and win school supplies
- Sept. 12: Final Kids Market of the season
If your child loves crafting, cooking, growing, designing, or dreaming up ideas, this is their moment to shine.
The Cicero Farmers Market runs Saturdays, from 8:30 a.m. to noon, now through Sept. 19. Follow weekly events, vendor spotlights, and special activities at tinyurl.com/CiceroFarmersMarket.
