Description
Operating since 2007 in Maryland just outside Washington, DC, the market is set in the immigrant community of Takoma/Langley Crossroads. It pioneered a choice-based model to address food insecurity that has since been replicated across the country. The market also features bilingual food demonstrations that provide visual guides to preparing local fruits and vegetables, alongside farm-to-fork activities engaging shoppers of all ages.
