THURSDAY, SEPT. 18TH – 6:00 – 8:30 pm,
benefiting Friends of Evanston Farmers Markets
The foundation of the Downtown Evanston Farmers Market is the fresh and delicious produce, meat and poultry of our farmers and ranchers.
It’s the same for the Annual Harvest Celebration. It’s our fourth event, and this year a dozen of Evanston’s finest chefs will partner with some of the market’s favorite vendors, each team to produce one wonderful dish.
You’ll meander from table to table, enjoying incredible food, and wander outside to sample the fare of Hummingbird, Evanston’s gourmet food truck, all while sipping some wonderful wine, or a glass of beer if you prefer.
What’s it like?
“It was like having the tasting menu in one of Chicago’s finest restaurants,
but instead of $300 it was only $70! We’ll be back next year.”
John R, 2013 attendee
The event takes place at Now We’re Cookin’ in Evanston, a fabulous venue with a demonstration kitchen plus a professional kitchen which serves as an incubator for start-up food businesses.
NEW THIS YEAR: A raffle of gourmet gift baskets, assembled from market vendor donations. The proceeds will help Friends in our mission to spread information about fresh food and home cooking, as well as providing better access to market products for citizens who need a little help. You’ll also get to sample our vendors’ favorite fall produce.
