Mouthwatering, Sense-Heightening Loudoun County Farmers Markets

The Loudoun County Farmer's Market season is in full bloom. There is something so exciting about the idea of walking to your local Loudoun County park or village square to pick out produce at the peak of its flavor. Not only is its nutritional content preserved, but the distance that peach or pepper traveled to get to you was minimal, saving resources and fossil fuels.

Loudoun County is full of some of the best Farmer's Markets around. The markets offer every produce imaginable all in peak season - fresh Arugula and Basil, hormone and antibiotic-free lamb, pasture raised chicken and pork, grass fed angus beef, decadent and rich cheeses like Everona Dairy's signature sheep's milk cheese, fresh cut flowers, homemade jams & jellies, mouthwatering pastries & pies like Lola's award winning goodies, homemade soaps, wine such as Fabbioli Cellars earth friendly quality red wine, and much more. If that list doesn't make your mouth water and your senses heighten, I don't know what will. Here are the variety of Farmers Market options that Loudoun County offers...
