Summer finally feels like it’s in gear, and there’s a lot happening around town on this first weekend of June. Here’s some of what we recommend:
Sat 6/4-Sun 6/5: Redheads unite in Highwood Park (17 Highwood) in suburban Highwood for Redhead Days Chicago, a weekend of food trucks, live music, and red-themed cocktails. Don’t miss the annual Carrot Cake Throwdown on Saturday afternoon, when North Shore chefs—from eateries like Taste on Chestnut and Nothing Bundt Cakes—compete in a carrot cake cook-off. Sat 11 AM-6 PM, Sun 11 AM-5 PM
