Dodson's Farm Market

Set up along Massachusetts Avenue NW, this neighborhood stand keeps things focused with just enough seasonal produce to encourage weekly visits. Shoppers trace Farmer Robert’s presence back nearly 30 years to an earlier run on Wisconsin Avenue, relying on him and a friendly young crew for consistent fruits and vegetables. The selection shifts with what is ready each week, featuring straightforward staples that include dense, sweet watermelons—noted by regulars even when they are neither organic nor seeded.
