Our Mission4MRMarket's mission is to bring 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.
We are proud that the market serves as an incubator for small start-up businesses, a space for non-profits to promote their causes, and a community gathering place for live music, fellowship, and quality food and crafts.
SNAP/EBT4MRMarket accepts SNAP/EBT payments and was the first farmers market in Northern VA to do so. With the help of INOVA's double dollars incentive and Fresh Match, the first $20 of tokens requested at our SNAP/EBT table will be doubled. So, you ask for $20 to be charged to your account, and you receive $40 in tokens to spend like cash at the market! Eating healthy made affordable thanks to INOVA, Fresh Match, and your local, Arlandria farmers market.
But we're about so much more!4MRMarket is part of an overall vision to expand and improve Four Mile Run Park and serve the surrounding neighborhood. We're helping to fix a park, restore a stream and build community. Every year, 4MRMarket donates its proceeds from market operations to the Four Mile Run Conservatory Foundation for various park improvements and programs.
