Become a Vendor!

We'd like to thank you for considering the South Loop Farmers Market (SLFM) this season and for your perseverance and creativity as we continue to nourish and educate our community. We're so excited to grow with you this year! 

For over a decade, SLFM has been a catalyst in pushing forward the local food & maker movement in Chicago's rapidly growing South Loop community. Our markets will not only accommodate our diverse and booming South Loop/Near South community, but will also serve as a destination market for visiting travelers, nearby McCormick Place Convention Center attendees, and neighboring guests traveling from city-wide and suburban locations.

 

SLFM will offer a comprehensive PR and digital marketing campaign throughout the season to keep customers excited and every digital channel buzzing!​

​​​

You are not required to apply to multiple market locations, but if you do want to apply to multiple locations, you will need to apply to each location separately.

​

SLFM will accept vendors selling a variety of fresh fruit, vegetables, plants, flowers, baked goods, meats, prepared & ready-to-eat foods, and relevant non-food items (including art, home goods, beauty products, vintage & handmade clothing, and other handmade goods).

​

We prioritize vendor applicants who make their product personally, source their materials as locally & ethically as possible, especially farmers, growers, and businesses who prioritize inclusivity and regenerative environmental practices. ​​​
