The French market concept that embodies the notion of buying local, and fresh has made its way to the Midwest. The Village of Lombard hosts an open air market. Public markets have been a long-standing tradition in Europe — a place where people would gather daily to choose from the best produce, crafts and other goods their geographic region had to offer. The model is now coupled with sustainability as citizens aim to be more responsible consumers.   

Saturday mornings in Lombard you will see vendors set up tents aligned in rows, preparing for community residents to flock to the booths of fresh produce and artisan baked goods. The Lombard French Market is open from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. through the end of September. Located in the Metra Parking lot on Lot E on St. Charles Rd, the market is free and open to the public. The market is run by Bensidoun USA, a company with 50 years of experience in management and development.
