Good morning! 🌅 We're not saying you should come down to the market this morning and make breakfast out of the incredible selection of tasty baked goods plus a cup of hot coffee or an iced latte... but we're not saying you shouldn't, either. 😇

THIS SATURDAY is opening day! Check out our vendor map to guide your trip; you can also pick up a hard copy at the info booth. IDOT has agreed to increase the amount of time of the traffic light in order to allow more cars to pass through per cycle! They indicated that this will be most effective if everyone uses the EXIT that is marked on the map instead of trying to pull out closer to the railroad tracks. Thanks for your cooperation :)
