Time for fresh food: the Columbia Heights Farmers Market is now open again, every Saturday from 9am-1pm. It will also eventually be open on Wednesdays, but I think that comes in a few months. The market is on the Columbia Heights Civic Plaza, the triangle plaza bounded by 14th, Park and Kenyon.
The Mt. Pleasant Farmers Market is also open, starting early April, also from 9am-1pm. It’s in Lamont Park, the triangular park at Mt. Pleasant Street NW & Lamont. The Petworth Market at Georgia and Upshur, will open in May.
I’m a big fan of all the markets — Columbia Heights seems to have more stuff, but all of them are nice and worth a visit. I really like the sausage vendor at Petworth and the bread at Columbia Heights. I’d also recommend checking out Ellē, the awesome bakery, coffee shop and restaurant, if you’re at the MtP market.
