One of the biggest perks of living in Virginia is the proximity to delicious, farm-grown produce. Nowhere is that more obvious than our local farmers markets. Travel to the northern part of the state and you’ll find one of Virginia’s first farm markets. With a charming exterior and plenty of delicious products inside, Shawnee Springs Market is a must-visit.
Let’s take a look:
Welcome to the Shawnee Springs Market. This friendly farmers market is tucked away in the Shenandoah Valley at 6656 N Frederick Pike, Cross Junction, Virginia.
Shanwee Springs sources its food locally from the beautiful farmlands of northern Virginia. Photographed below is a bird's eye view of the nearby peach orchard.
Their homemade pie selection is so popular that inventory often runs out for major holidays. The decadent homemade pie crust with a filling of real fruit makes for an unbeatable combination.
Can't decide which pie to order? The Fruits of the Forest is a local favorite, complete with apples, strawberries, blackberries, raspberries, and rhubarb.
Other favorites include the homemade biscuits made with real honey butter. Take home a dozen or so of these and you'll have a start to the perfect weekend brunch.
Depending on the time of year, you'll find all sorts of seasonal products. It's the perfect spot to find a one-of-a-kind gift, whether that be a tea towel, bouquet of flowers, homemade treat, or a novelty item.
