Once again, the Columbia Pike Farmers Market brings you the best fresh products straight from the field to your table.  Eat local and support sustainable agriculture! Join us every Sunday  from 9 am until 1 pm in Pike  Park in front of the Rite Aid store at the corner of Columbia Pike and S. Walter Reed Dr.  Please note that customer parking is no longer available in the Ski Chalet parking lot on S. Edgewood St.  Ample public parking ($1 per hour for up to 4 hours) is available across the street from the market on the first underground level of the Halstead's parking garage.   The garage entrance is on S. Walter Reed Dr., just south of the intersection at Columbia Pike. 

Given the Pike’s history it is very appropriate that this community supports its own Farmers Market. Did you know that beginning in the early 1800s, and for well over a century, the Pike served as a preferred "farm to market" route for the nation’s capital?

Be sure to come out and enjoy this delicious tradition as the Columbia Pike Farmers Market enjoys its 15th year!
