JEFFERSON PARK — The Jefferson Park Sunday Market will make its third appearance of the winter season at the Copernicus Center, 5216 W. Lawrence Ave., with more than 30 craft, food and drink vendors on Sunday.

Unlike during summer months, when the Sunday market sells produce outdoors, shoppers will be able to choose from a wider variety of goodies inside a toasty sheltered venue.

Hot food, baked goods and spices will be sold by businesses without permanent locations, like Spark of the Heart, making Sunday a rare opportunity to hunt them down.

Neighbors can also pick up gift-worthy items and decorative touches from Chicago Hot Glass or neighborhood standby Distinct Bath & Body.

Making its winter season return Sunday will be Lester's Bison Farm, which will sell "bison pot pies," and West Humboldt Park-based Metro Farms, which will offer homegrown tilapia alongside a full array of hydroponic produce.

A full cash bar will be available at the market, set to include beer, wine, liquor and coffee. Lake Effect Brewing will be pouring its Bitchin’ Blonde Belgian-style ale starting at 11 a.m.

The Irish folk duo Pipes & Fiddle will perform throughout the event.

The indoor winter market runs from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. Sunday. It will make its fourth and final run on May 7.

Admission is free. For more information, email jeffersonparksundaymarket@zoho.com.
