The hiring process is underway for Store Manager. Of over 60 candidates, 12 were selected for further screening and interviews. We plan to extend an offer for this position in the next week.
Clerk and Cashier positions are still open for application, with start dates anticipated for June 2nd. Please visit Careers – Wild Onion Market to learn more and apply.
Volunteers Needed
To ensure the success of our coop, we need to continue to spread the word, both to welcome new owners and to let the community know that anyone and everyone is welcome to shop at Wild Onion Market. Therefore, we are planning to publicize the coop at the Evanston Farmer’s Market on Saturdays, Glenwood Sunday Market, beginning June 2nd, and at Metra and CTA Red Line stations in Rogers Park.

Please Let the City Know: We Still Need Bike Racks
More bike racks near our store would make it easier for people to reach us, and there is a perfect spot for two or three racks between two trees on the public sidewalk on the south side of Lunt. Fortunately, the Chicago Department of Transportation (DOT) operates a Bikeways Program that installs bike racks in such locations. Its goal is to install hundreds of bike racks where they would be most useful.
To help us make an effective request, please complete this online request form. You’ll be asked for your name and email address, and the type of location. Please check business and be sure to specify that the racks should be on Lunt Avenue east of Clark Street. If you like, you can pinpoint the location on a map.
