Alexandria is blessed with great Farmers Markets to choose from on a Saturday or Sunday. The Del Ray Farmers Market is a food and plant-based market located in the heart of one of Alexandria's most vibrant and diverse neighborhoods. During the peak season, there are more than 30 farmers and vendors (link to 2024 vendor list) offering fruits and vegetables, meat, poultry, fish, eggs, cheeses, breads, fresh pasta, baked goods and cut flowers. The Market is open Saturday year-round from 8am-Noon at the corner of Mt. Vernon & Oxford Avenues.
Shopping here for Market items makes it difficult not to enjoy a coffee, breakfast sammich, or lunch in Del Ray as part of your Market-going experience. My favorite after-Market stop is Gustave Boulangerie, on the next block. Try a croissant breakfast sammich or Salmon Tartine.
