Looking for something to do this weekend?

Archwood Green Barns opens up for this season on Sunday (10 a.m. - 3 p.m.) I'm excited to check out the new vendors as well as old standbys like the to-die-for BBQ. 





Archwood is a "producer only" farmer's market, which means each vendor raises, grows, and/or makes what they sell. (At a lot of other local farmer's markets, I've seen vendors reselling stuff they bought wholesale at places like Amish country up north of us.) Last year around this time there were plants, honey, eggs, meats, salsas and guacamole, jellies and jams, and crafts. There will likely be early spring vegetables, but I wouldn't expect much besides greens (arugula, spinach, and salad) this early in the growing season.  



Archwood Green Barns is located at the intersection of Rt. 245 and I-66; if you're using your GPS, plug in 4557 Old Tavern Road, The Plains, Virginia.
