MichelleW Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 This year, there's a new Farmer's Market in Reston at RTC. Here are the details: Smart Markets at Reston Town Center is every Thursday, 3:30 - 7 pm. May 1 - November 20. Last week was the first week. Hopefully it will improve with time and will be able to coexist peacefully alongside the Lake Anne Farmer's Market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichelleW Posted May 9, 2008 Author Share Posted May 9, 2008 I braved the rain this week to visit again. A greater assortment of vendors was out, along with the folks from last week. One welcome addition was the people from Endless Summer Harvest (http://esharvest.com/) in Purcellville. If you aren't familiar with them, they grow purely hydroponically. I picked up a head of lettuce and both regular and Thai basil from them. I chatted with them for a bit and they told me they'll only be doing the RTC Farmer's Market this year and they'll not be doing Lake Anne anymore. So if you're a fan of Endless Summer Harvest, you'll have to see them at RTC or another of their markets from now on. Everyone had a lot more this week. The herbs are coming in, there were a lot more greens, and onions, and I honestly think that last week's turnout convinced the vendors they could bring a more varied selection. I'm looking forward to seeing this develop! (PS: if you're short on cash, there's a BB&T ATM right next to the green where the market sets up) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
