The Upper King Street Neighborhood Association launched its Fresh Farmers’ Market (not to be confused with the FreshFarm markets) yesterday in King Street Garden Park (across from the King Street Metro). The market primarily features produce grown by local farmers (sworn to be homegrown (PDF)), as well as fresh flowers and canned dips/spreads (pumpkin pie spread, black bean/hot pepper dips). Despite a small number of vendors, the market provides residents, visitors, and commuters an opportunity to pick up fresh fruit and vegetables on a Wednesday afternoon. The market runs every Wednesday until October 29th, 3-7 p.m., rain or shine.
