Artisanal Food Gifts Abundant at the Logan Square Winter Farmers Market

Chicago Talks, December 11, 2011

Scoop up farm fresh holiday gifts when you visit the Logan Square Indoor Farmers Market. Enjoy sipping hot chocolate and listening to live music as you browse. The Farmers Market is from 10 AM – 2 PM every Sunday at the Congress Theater at 2135 N Milwaukee Ave.

You’ll find a plentiful selection of local specialty foods that make thoughtful gifts for friends and family.  Give a sweet treat from Mama’s Nuts, nut-based confections from chef Adrienne Lo of the popular underground dinner series X-Marx.

Handmade truffles and caramels from Katherine Anne Confections make a wonderful hostess gifts. SenTEAmental Moods small batch teas make a great stocking stuffer.

Create a gift basket that’s better than anything you could order online. Choose from truly gourmet cheeses– Ludwig Farmstead Creamery’s European-style raw milk cheese made in Illinois, Stamper Cheese Company’s artisanal Wisconsin cheeses, or Prairie Pure Cheese.

Add a little kick with homemade salsa from River Valley Ranch and locally-made hot sauces from the nonprofit Co-op Sauce. The Scrumptious Pantry’s pickles and pasta sauces made from local organic produce are also sure to please discriminating palates.

If you’re looking for an even more DIY approach to holiday giving, local produce can be made into homemade treats like apple butter, pickled beets, or onion jam in your own kitchen.
