Winter Markets Benefit Illinois Farmers
Tomorrow kicks off this season's series of winter farmer's markets, held in churches all around the city. A portion of the proceeds go to Faith In Place, an organization that supports farmers who face unexpected crises that limit their ability to work and threaten their well-being. Tomorrow's market will be held in the First Evangelical Free Church at 5255 N. Ashland Ave. Check out the full schedule here.

Dana, this is confusing and not entirely accurate. The city already has two winter farmers markets that I can think of (Green City and Logan Square). This appears to be a different animal, sponsored by Faith in Place and Churches' Center for Land and People (CCLP), for the benefit of the farmers AND Faith in Place, etc.
