  1. On your way to Union Market this weekend?  Drive 10 minutes further out NY Ave. and try  a Prince George's County Winery for your Drink Local credentials...Romano Winery from Brandywine, Maryland will be making their third appearance at the Free State's first farmers market featuring local wines--Cheverly Community Market. Those colonials must have known something because we hear other wineries will be opening around the Romanos soon. A drive to the area might give you the hint, rolling sun-kissed hills ringed with old-growth woodlands.

    I've personally enjoyed bottles of Fallen Leaf and Liberty and look forward to trying the chambourcin, a grape particularly suited to our climate.

  2. We opened May 21 and have an every other week schedule until October 22nd. . Please check out the photographs on our frequently updated, informative website www.cheverlycommunitymarket.com and blog. Chesapeake Bay Roasting Company coffee, Two Oceans sustainable seafood, a different winery every week, fruits, vegetables, Firehook baked goods and Moctec tortillas and chips, jams, artisanal sausages from Simply Sausage (cited in Washingtonian Magazine's recent Great Food issue), Eve's Cheese, lamb, beef and pork from the Waltz family farm and now gourmet popsicles provided by POPular Pops from Annapolis. There's a lot to like about this small-town farmers market, including the relaxing coffee shop atmosphere -- tables under the trees-- and the friendly folks.

    Open 8-12 on alternate Saturdays. Hop on the bus from the Cheverly Metro, get off at Legion Park and walk 2 blocks to the Community Center, 6401 Forest Rd., Cheverly MD 20785. There is a Thanksgiving and a Holiday Market inside, November 19 and December 10, 2011. It's worth the trip.
