WHAT'S HAPPENING IN VAHI?
Look at all the fun stuff that our VaHi District is bringing to the neighborhood!
VIRGINIA HIGHLAND FARMERS' MARKET:
Every Thursday, 4:00 pm to 7:00 pm. This community hub for local produce and goods will run from March 31 to November 17! Every Thursday, rain or shine, you can stock up on your favorite tasty treats while supporting local farmers and businesses at our Virginia Highland Farmers Market. The Market will have regular farmers, food vendors, flowers and local art, along with monthly rotating vendors; you can look here in advance to find out which vendors will be present each week. The market is run by Community Farmers Market, sponsored by the Wheeler family, Virginia Highland District Association and the Virginia Highland Farm Burger.
