I’ve seen a number of postings and stories about a new farmers’ market coming to a location near The White House. ReadysetDC has a posting, which directed me to FRESHFARM Markets’ Web site to confirm it.
The new farmers’ market, which will be at 810 Vermont Avenue NW (between H and I Streets) will be open on Thursdays from 3 to 7 p.m. It opens this Thursday the 17th and runs through October 29.
Love the evening hours. I live in Borderstan, but commute out to Fairfax County. So, if you live downtown, but don’t work downtown, this is a good weekday market option for you. Google Maps times the walk from the heart of Borderstan to 810 Vermont Avenue as taking about 15 minutes.
FRESHFARM Markets already operates eight farmers’ markets in the “Chesapeake Bay area,” including the Sunday Dupont market on 20th Street NW.
Don’t forget any of the southbound 14th or 16th Street buses!
