Koiner Urban Farm operates as a small municipal growing site in Arlington, Virginia, not Maryland — the county runs it as part of its urban agriculture program rather than as a private business. Independent verification of current programming and contact details wasn't available through public search today, so treat specifics beyond location and purpose as unconfirmed.

Rockville

This Wednesday market ran outside Dawson's Market, the specialty grocer on North Washington Street in downtown Rockville, from May through September — produce, gourmet cheese, baked goods, meat, and seafood pulled partly from the store's own local sourcing. Dawson's Market closed permanently in June 2024 after twelve years, and there's no indication the outdoor market has continued under a different host. Anyone updating this listing should confirm whether it still runs at all.
