Independence Park Farmers Market

Welcome to Independence Park, a diverse family-oriented community on Chicago’s northwest side. Situated along Irving Park Road near the Kennedy Expressway, Independence Park is conveniently located between downtown Chicago and O’Hare Airport along the Metra and CTA blue lines. As an older neighborhood that was originally established in the 1800’s, Independence Park retains the vintage character of oversize lots, mature trees and generously sized homes in a variety of period styles. These attributes are what gives Independence Park it’s unique character and what makes it such a tranquil inner city neighborhood in which to live. The Independence Park community hosts a number of amenities including the Murphy Academy of Arts and Sciences, Athletic Field and Independence Park. Numerous civic groups contribute to a sense of community involvement including the Greater Independence Park Neighborhood Association, the Athletic Field Park Advisory Council, the Independence Park Advisory Council, and several clubs devoted to books, gardening and athletics.
