Launched in January 2020 in the heart of D.C.’s Park View neighborhood, the Park View Farmers Market (PVFM) aims to provide economic opportunity to local entrepreneurs and increase access to local food through a vibrant community marketplace. PVFM’s unique location, inside of Hook Hall, gives the market a special quality and offers an expansive indoor space for community members to safely and comfortably shop for fresh food, while building lasting relationships with local makers, growers, and neighbors. With Hook Hall’s bar open during the market, you can even sip on a beer or Bloody Mary while you shop!
PVFM was forced to halt operations in March 2020 due to COVID-19 – just two months after its grand opening. Its reopening this past February was met with much excitement from the community, as people are once again able to support the market’s rotation of incredible vendors. With local farmers, bakers, and artisans, you can expect to find fresh produce, pickles, baked goods, hot foods, teas, spices, and foods that reflect our diverse community, as well as skincare, candles, and so much more! This summer, PVFM is thrilled to welcome back family-friendly programming to the market once again, including live music, games, sing-alongs & more!
To ensure that PVFM is an inclusive space for community members to shop for fresh food, the market accepts a range of payment methods, including SNAP, WIC, WIC Farmers Market Nutrition Program, the Senior Farmers Market Nutrition Program, and Breadcoin, as well as cash, credit, and debit. PVFM also provides customers with a free food waste (compost) drop-off. Be sure to stop by Hook Hall (3400 Georgia Ave NW) on Sundays from 10am - 2pm to experience the multitude of new and returning vendors, special activities, family programming, and live events that PVFM will be hosting in the coming weeks.
