Chicago Patchwork Farms

Chicago Patchwork Farms is a vegetable farm that remediates vacant land on Chicago's south and west sides to produce food and create bio-diverse green space in economically and environmentally distressed neighborhoods. Its diverse operation grows many vegetables alongside eggs, cut flowers, medicinal herbs, honey, and preserved foods. The farm sells through a pay-what-you-can farm stand and a sliding-scale CSA subscription with spring, summer, and fall seasons totaling 26 weeks of produce. SNAP/LINK payments are accepted for CSA shares. Beyond produce, the farm hosts farm dinners, tours, workshops, and seasonal cultural events including theater, music, dance, and storytelling. It also offers a community garden, a compost drop-off program, and hands-on agricultural education for Chicago Public Schools students and college interns. Learn more on their About Page.
