Board of Directors
Message from the Board
We are honored to be on of the Board of Directors for Green City Market. The heart of the Market is the farmers and the work they do to bring delicious, seasonal, carefully raised food to our tables. Our job is to help make that food available to everyone in Chicago and continue the momentum begun by our founder, Abby Mandel.
The farmers you see every Wednesday and Saturday at Green City Market are the core of all our initiatives. Without them there would be no food and there would be no Market. We know you will be pleased with the foods they produce.
The Green City Market is a 501 (c) 3 organization and we depend on our generous donors to ensure that we can continue to bring local, sustainably produced food to Chicago. We appreciate your support of the Green City Market.
