Local Produce, Artisan Crafts Available at Gaithersburg’s Farmers
Markets
"The City of Gaithersburg presents two Farmers Markets,
featuring locally grown produce throughout the growing season. The variety of
fruits and vegetables changes weekly as different crops reach maturity. In
addition to produce, both markets feature a variety of meats, baked goods,
honey, cider, jams and jellies, eggs, granola, and fresh herbs.
The Main Street Farmers and Artists Market is open Saturdays, May 4 through November 23, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. You’ll find it in the Main Street Pavilion at 301 Main Street, one block off of Kentlands Boulevard directly behind Whole Foods in the Kentlands. A variety of local artists, acoustic performers, and craftspeople with unique handcrafted items will join the farmers at this location each Saturday, and eggs, dog products, potted plants, and cut flowers will also be available.
The Fulks Corner Farmers Market is open Thursdays, May 2 through November 21, from 1 to 6 p.m. You’ll find it at the corner of Route 355 and Fulks Corner Avenue in Olde Towne. Crafters will not be present for this market.
Both locations are now an Eat Fresh Maryland partner, fully committed to increasing access to fresh, local food for Marylanders of all backgrounds and incomes through federal nutrition benefits. Both markets accept WIC, FVC and FMNP checks.
