In a world-class city where consumers are ripe for knowledge about the origins of their food, EDIBLE CHICAGO offers its readers a direct connection to the local producers who can provide a bounty of fresh ingredients for consumption. Rich with editorial content and stunning photography, our mission is to transform the way communities shop for, cook, eat and relate to the food that is grown and produced in our area. We value local, seasonal, authetic foods and culinary traditions. At EDIBLE CHICAGO, we strive to put a face on every farmer as well as tell their stories and champion their efforts towards a more sustainable food system.

With our features, "The Lake Effect" and "Rural Roots" to "Chicagrows" and "Melting Pot" we offer our readers a variety of content from organic rooftop gardens around Chicago to a regional farmer in Central Illinois. We go beyond the printed word to help our readers make connections with the local growers, chefs and food artisans who elevate our knowledge and palate.

Look for us this summer at local farmers markets, at our advertisers and selected distribution points around Chicago and surrounding communities!

EDIBLE CHICAGO is advertiser supported, and a free publication published seasonally.

It is also available by subscription for delivery right to your door. Please inquire.
