Fall Market in Full Swing at Lake Anne

The official Reston Farmers Market at Lake Anne Plaza has ended for the season, but a reorganized group will stay on Saturdays through Dec. 20 for fall and pre-holiday shopping.

The Fall Farmers Market is an offshoot of the Lake Anne Craft Market, which runs alongside the Fairfax County-sponsored farmers market from May to October.

Twenty-four vendors will stay through the late season, says craft market organizer Eve Thompson. The market opens at 9 a.m.

“Many of the regular favorites have stayed for the Fall Market, and we have new offerings like fresh pasta, olives, spices, and prepared foods, tacos, bbq, empanadas, and real dill pickles,” she said. “All are local vendor produced and or grown products.”

• Bees ‘n Blossoms
