Farmers Markets

 

Welcome

Fairfax County Park Authority operates 10 farmers markets across Fairfax County. The mission of the Fairfax County Farmers Markets is to provide residents access to locally grown products and create market opportunities for area farmers and food producers.

Our markets are strictly producer-only, meaning that all of our farmers and producers may only sell what they raise on their farms or make from scratch. We encourage our vendors to use local ingredients in the creation of their products as much as possible. Our farmers and producers all come from within a 125-mile radius of Fairfax County, with a few exceptions for hard-to-find products.

Why Local Fruit May Be Limited This Season

A late spring freeze affected many Mid-Atlantic orchards, so peaches, cherries, plums, nectarines and apples may be harder to find. Some vendors may offer fruit from trusted regional farm partners and will share sourcing information. Keep shopping local — every purchase helps support farmers.

Tree fruit may be limited, including:

  • Peaches, Cherries, Plums, Nectarines and Apples

What this means:

  • Some fruits may be harder to find.
  • Quantities may be smaller than usual.
  • Farmers may bring fruit from trusted regional farm partners.

How to support farmers:

  • Keep shopping local.
  • Buy directly from market vendors.
  • Ask farmers what they grew and what is available.
  • Choose Fairfax County Farmers Markets for your weekly groceries.

Community Use Areas

farmers markes community use area

The Park Authority welcomes members of the public to use its parks for engaging in expressive activities. To maximize the availability of the parks to all users and to promote community safety, the Park Authority has set aside Community Use Areas at its farmers markets and near its concert and summer entertainment venues.

The Fairfax County Park Authority has established Community Use Areas where individuals, nonprofits and other community groups may conduct non-commercial expressive activities.
