Many NoVinians suffer winter’s (usual) cold, harsh winds to meander through tables and select what local produce is offered during the off-peak season. They sacrifice warmth to gain access to locavore products, meats and vegetables, speaking to their freshness and flavor that leaps and bounds over superstore counterparts.
Fear not. This week the Frying Pan Farm Park in Herndon is supplying a simply warmer alternative via, The Farmers Table 2012, their new indoor farmers market.
Starting this Thursday, Feb. 23, and running (almost) every Thursday until April 26, The Visitor Center at Frying Pan Farm Park will be hosting vendors with locally grown produce, meats, pastries and food-focused products from 2:30pm to 6:30pm.
Want to get really local? Check out Stallard Road Farm, nestled just west of Warrenton, a confirmed vendor who will be selling local meat, honey and teas.
