About the Market
Background
Founded by veterans, this farmers market operates behind the University of Mary Washington Stafford Campus on Route 17. It has become a staple in the community, providing a venue for local producers to sell their goods every Wednesday evening from mid-May through August.
Practices
The market emphasizes the importance of local goods as the linchpin of the economy, ensuring that all products sold are locally sourced and of the highest quality. This approach not only supports local farmers and producers but also fosters a sense of community and sustainability.
The Rest
In addition to fresh produce, visitors can find meats, honey, baked goods, granola, ice cream, pickles, pizza, popcorn, salsa, coffee, tea, soaps, and other personal care products. The market aims to create a fun shopping experience with competitive prices and a wide variety of offerings.
