Morning Shift Live From the Streeterville Farmer’s Market
Morning Shift was out of the studio and on the road, broadcasting live from the Streeterville farmers market, organized by the group SOAR.The market is located in the plaza of Chicago’s Museum of Contemporary Art. We went out ther because even though the summer weather took its sweet time arriving, it’s finally here and with it: farmers market season. Whether you like to hit up your local farmers market to get the freshest produce, locally-sourced products, or just to sample the wares, it’s not a bad way to spend your lunch break. In this special one hour podcast we heard from two farmers, learned the difference between organic and sustainable from an organic gardener and heard about some tips when visiting your local farmer’s market.This hour, we’re bringing you a consumer’s guide to the farmer’s market, how to grow your own vegetables and herbs in your backyard, and we’ll talk to the farmers themselves.
