The Four Mile Run Farmers & Artisans Market (4MRMarket) will be open every Sunday from 9am until 1pm year-round in Four Mile Run Park at 4109 Mt Vernon Avenue, Alexandria. (click here for directions)
While Alexandria might be mistaken for the Emerald Isle these days, with green as far as the eye can see, there's no mistaking the produce stalls at 4MRMarket. They are beginning to brim with produce!
With week after week of rain, we keep thinking the produce will be 10-times its normal size, but we will see. Either way, 4MRMarket continues rain, wind, or shine, taking up shelter in the 4MR Conservatory Building whenever necessary.
See below all the ways to help and participate in the market!
VOLUNTEER. We love help with set-up and tear-down and/or processing SNAP/EBT and Credit / Debit Card sales. Just find a Market Manager to ask to help, or email us at 4MRMarket@arlandria.org for more info.
FOLLOW. Keep up to date on all the goings on by following 4MRMarket on Facebook, Twitter, Google+, Email or via our website and blog.
SPREAD THE WORD. Please tell folks about us. And tell folks about some of the great things we're doing. For instance, all SNAP/EBT participants can take advantage of the Inova-sponsored "Double Dollar" program again this year that doubles the first $20 SNAP participants spend at the market. 4MRMarket was the first farmers’ market in Northern Virginia to accept SNAP.
The Four Mile Run Farmers and Artisans Market (Alexandria, Virginia 22305) brings fresh, nutritious food to people of all income levels, provide an opportunity for local artisans and producers of goods to bring their wares to market, strive to reflect the diversity of the community, and improve the quality of life for Arlandria residents and visitors. It is part of an overall vision to expand and improve Four Mile Run park and the surrounding neighborhood.
