2009 Locavore Challenge

The Green City Market is sponsoring a Locavore Challenge for Chicagoans to commit to eating locally grown and produced foods for two weeks.  The challenge begins September 9th and runs through September 24th.  Details can be found at the Green City Market or on their website http://www.chicagogreencitymarket.org/programs/program.asp?id=6

A number of restaurants, including Table 52, the Bristol and North Pond, are joining the cause by offering a locavore menu during the challenge.  Some are also sponsoring special events and donating $1 of each locavore dish to support Green City Market.
