Rockville

Milk Lady Markets runs this Saturday market (9 a.m. to 1 p.m., May through October) in the lot outside Neighborhood Church of Rockville on Redland Road. Vendors sell farm produce and meats alongside breakfast tacos, croissants, quiches, honey, jams, coffee, and local artwork — more of a full breakfast stop than a bare produce stand. Established in 2018, it runs rain or shine, no weather cancellations.

Derwood

Common Root Farm is a regenerative, small-scale, certified organic vegetable farm in Derwood, Maryland near Olney, started by farmer Ryan in 2018.

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.

The Saturday Rockville Farmers Market sets up in the Jury Building parking lot at the corner of Route 28 and Monroe Street, running 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. from mid-May through early November. It's one of the longer-running markets in Montgomery County's rotation, and it takes FMNP, WIC, and SNAP/EBT — built for a regular grocery run, not just weekend browsing.

Damascus

Run out of the Damascus FFA grounds on Ridge Road, this Saturday market (9 a.m. to noon) leans on a rotating lineup of small local sellers — Anam Cara Egg Farm for eggs, Pheasant Hill Farm and Willowponds Hydroponics for produce, and home-based vendors like CC Hsu selling jams, jellies, and baked goods. It's a modest, FFA-organized market rather than a big-production event, built around the same families showing up week to week.

Burnt Hill Farm is 117 acres of vineyard and polyculture farmland in Clarksburg, inside the Montgomery County Agricultural Reserve, purchased in 2016 and built around regenerative, animal-integrated farming rather than a single cash crop. The estate makes its own wine and runs a wood-fired kitchen led by chef Tae Strain, with Food & Wine naming it one of the country's most beautiful vineyards. Visits run through ticketed tastings booked online, not walk-in.

Hensing's Hilltop Acres doesn't have a confirmed independent website or public listing, so verified details on crops, livestock, or hours aren't available. The name points to Maryland's rolling Piedmont country, where hilltop farms are common, but nothing beyond that can be confirmed from public sources today.
