Chicago Vegan Farmers Market

A weekly farmers market featuring fresh produce, baked goods, vintage clothing and other items has kicked off in West Town — and its offerings are 100 percent vegan.

The Chicago Vegan Farmers Market was founded by Betty Alper, who runs gluten-free and vegan bakery Bot Bakery, which has a South Shore storefront. She has long frequented local markets, including in Logan Square, Woodlawn and Austin.
