Despite rainy weather, neighborhood residents turned out for the first farmers market in Jackson Park. Vendors sold early summer greens and vegetables, bakery-made bread, gifts and stationary and food truck goodies. Look for the market near the boathouse on Thursdays from 4 to 7 p.m., through October 15.
