  • From the Farm to the Fest

    Apple Fest brings the best of the fall harvest, and a whole lot more, to the heart of Lincoln Square!

    Meet farmers from Illinois, Indiana and Michigan and stock up on fresh-picked apples, cider, pumpkins, squash, honey, artisan cheeses, preserves and other tastes of the Midwest harvest. Then wander through our bustling marketplace to discover specialty foods, handcrafted goods, original art, jewelry, ceramics, apparel, candles, fall décor, gifts and plenty of unexpected finds.

    Whether you're filling a bag with apples, picking out the perfect pumpkin, getting an early start on holiday shopping or simply seeing what catches your eye, there's always something worth taking home from Apple Fest.
