Fall Into Farm-Fresh Food at the Rockville Farmers Market
The Rockville Farmers Market has officially opened for the fall season, operating every Saturday from 9 a. m. to 1 p. m. until November 23.
Situated in the jury parking lot at East Jefferson and Monroe streets, the market showcases a wide variety of fall produce, including apples, cider, gourds, and pumpkins. In addition to fresh fruits and vegetables, attendees can find plants, baked goods, local beer and spirits, as well as meat and coffee. A standout initiative at the market is the Eat Fresh Rockville and Maryland Market Money program, which helps alleviate food insecurity by providing a dollar-for-dollar match on federal nutrition benefits, up to $20 weekly. This program not only increases access to fresh, healthy food but also supports local farmers and strengthens the community's food system. Customers can learn more about this initiative at the market tent or online through the city's website.
The market serves as a vital resource for residents, promoting healthy eating habits and fostering a connection to local agriculture. For updates, shoppers can follow the market on Facebook.
