Adams Morgan Farmer Market

At 18th Street and Columbia Rd, NW, Adams Morgan Farmer Market brings a small, farm-anchored lineup into one of Washington’s busiest neighborhood crossroads. The market runs from June through December on Saturdays, with Licking Creek Bend Farm as a central presence and additional appearances from Remie’s Flowers and plants and RavenHook Bakehouse. The strongest throughline here is direct-from-producer food: Licking Creek Bend Farm describes itself as a Certified Naturally Grown vegetable, fruit, and Christmas-tree farm selling pesticide-free produce at this market. SNAP access is part of that picture too, with the farm stating that its markets and CSAs accept WIC and Produce Plus holding families.

What you'll find there

This market reads as a compact stop built around a working farm’s own harvest rather than a long roster of stalls. The mix that is named points to three clear lanes—produce, flowers, and baked goods—with one vendor supplying the market’s strongest identity.

• -Shop Licking Creek Bend Farm for Certified Naturally Grown vegetables, fruit, and pesticide-free produce; the farm also identifies itself as a Christmas-tree grower.
• -Look for Remie’s Flowers and plants, listed as a market participant that may open in May, especially around Mother’s Day.
• -Pick up baked goods from RavenHook Bakehouse, also named as a participant that may open in May, especially around Mother’s Day.

Taken together, the named vendors suggest a market where a produce run can overlap with a bouquet purchase or a bakery stop, but the farm stand remains the clearest anchor. Licking Creek Bend Farm gives this market its strongest sense of place because the stand is tied to a broader farm operation, not just a sales point. The farm describes itself as Certified Naturally Grown and says it sells pesticide-free produce at Adams Morgan, linking the neighborhood market directly to its own vegetable and fruit production. That connection stretches beyond weekly shopping: the same farm promotes farm visits and explains that it grows Christmas trees on about eight acres of marginal land without herbicides, pesticides, or artificial colors. Even in a city intersection setting, that background changes how the market feels. The produce table is backed by a farm that also invites people onto the land and talks in concrete terms about how it grows, what it avoids using, and which crops and products travel from the farm into the market.

Know before you go

No dogs are allowed, which is the clearest policy detail likely to change a Saturday plan. The market is seasonal rather than year-round, operating from June through December on Saturdays from 8:30am to 1pm. Restrooms are not available, so this is easier to approach as a focused shopping stop than a long stay. Payment methods are clearly identified at the market level, and SNAP/EBT is accepted, which matters if you are planning a produce run around specific benefits. If you are going specifically for flowers or baked goods, note that Remie’s Flowers and plants and RavenHook Bakehouse are described as vendors that may open in May, especially for Mother’s Day, rather than as year-round participants in the market season.
