Farmer's Markets in Charlottesville - Buy Local

vegetables

One of the treats of summer is eating fresh vegetables. Unfortunately not all of us are lucky enough to have the ability to pick fresh vegetables out of our own gardens. However in the Charlottesville, Virginia area we have a number of local farmers markets selling fresh produce to choose from:

  • Forest Lakes Farmer's Market - Tuesdays 4-7pm, 1650 Ashwood Boulevard, South recreational Facility parking lot in Forest Lakes.
  • Crozet Market - 8am-noon on Saturdays in Crozet.
  • Nelson County Farmers Market - Saturdays, Rt 151, Nellysford
  • Fluvanna Farmer's Market - Tuesdays 3-7pm at Pleasant Grove
  • Scottsville Farmer's Market - Saturdays, 8-11am at Dorrier Park
  • Charlottesville City Market - 7am-noon on Saturdays on Water Street
  • Market at Meade Park - 3-7pm, Wednesdays

So head out to one of the farmer's markets, enjoy the bounty and "buy fresh, buy local".

Pam~ Those vegetables look so good.  There is nothing quite like fresh home grown vegetables, is there?

Pam:  It sounds like you have a pretty wide variety of farmer's markets there in Albemarle.  I wish we had some really good ones here in Fort Worth, but as yet I have not come across one.

By the way... I think this makes a great post to Localism... something the general public will find very helpful... thanks for sharing.

This is cool Pam...we don't have any great ones anymore.  WE have some, but not like other communities do.

Vickie - Fresh fruits and veggies are soooo much better.


Karen - We didn't always have this many.  It is definately an improvement.


Karen - I think it follows the rules that were just posted.


Larry - I hope some farmers in your area get with it soon.  I think we are lucky to have so many.
