It’s shaping up to be a very nice weekend. What better way to support your community than by attending one of the many farmer’s markets sponsored by the Loudoun Valley HomeGrown Markets Association.
Whether you’re in Ashburn, Brambleton, Cascades, Leesburg, or Purcellville, there are plenty of local farms selling fresh produce, breads, and meats, among other items, for your refrigerator or pantry.
And if you can’t get out to one of these locations, how about trying Loudoun Flavor, a “virtual” local farmer’s market, where you can buy local, on-line, and pick up your order at various Loudoun locations.
My first political activity was handing out literature for Jim Webb at the Leesburg Farmers’ Market. They really have great stuff there.
