RASTAFARMI, our Certified Organic grower, has lovely seasonal veggies grown on their farm in "Boring", Maryland. Nothing Boring about RASTAFARMI though.  On the farm, RASTAFARMI, is able to sustainably grow a wide variety of healthy, vibrant, and tasty produce, the natural way - without the use of any chemicals! We are so blessed to have them at our market. They sell to  restaurants using Chesapeake Farm to Table, as well as many local farmer's markets.

Come say "Hi!" to Megan, who can tell you all about the certified organic growing methods they use at RASTAFARMI! ​She and her other half, Brandon, are the <3 HEARTS <3 behind RASTAFARMI. Come take a look, see for yourself and buy their local, beautifully grown, certified organic veggies, herbs, plants and more brought to the Mount Airy Main Street Farmers' Market just for you.

<--- Ahhhh, Squash Blossoms! Ask Megan how she would use them!
