Every Saturday, Jocelyn brings her 93-year-old mom Harriet to our Van Ness farmers market.
"This is something we do as a family."
Fresh food, family tradition, and community all in one place. But we know not everyone can make it out every week. That's exactly why Fresh Basket exists.
Whether it's age, limited mobility, a packed schedule, or just life getting in the way, we’ve got you covered.
Fresh, local, organic produce can still land on your doorstep weekly anywhere in DC from as little as $26.

Did you know there's a government board meeting this week that decides what food gets to wear the organic label?
The NOSB (National Organic Standards Board) votes on rules that affect every certified organic farm in the country, including the farmers at your local market. Seeds, fraud prevention, approved substances, it's all on the table.
Swipe to see what's being decided and why it matters to you as a consumer AND a farmer.

Did you know there’s a way to get fresh, certified organic produce delivered straight to your door at a fraction of what you’d pay at the grocery store, while directly supporting a local farmer?
It’s called a CSA and it’s been one of the best-kept secrets to ensure sustainable food systems.
We put together some information to break things down, check it out and share it with someone in DC who needs to know about this.
The Farmer’s Alliance CSA program, Fresh Basket, now has open subscriptions for pre-orders.

Meet Linda’s Home Baking 🧁
Every Saturday at the UDC Farmers Market, they show up with cakes and desserts that stop people mid-stride. But last week? It was their Thai tea that had us talking.
Made completely from scratch, served ice cold. One sip was all it took and it couldn’t be put down. Refreshing doesn't even cover it!

With Mother's Day right around the corner, they’re taking pre-orders for their full dessert menu. Limited availability, so don't wait on this one.

📍 Van Ness/ UDC Farmers Market
4200 Connecticut Ave NW, every Saturday from 9AM–2PM

Pre-order for Mother's Day: 202-820-0028
Suite B1-10, 1400 16th Street NW, Washington DC

The price gap between conventional grocery retail and direct farm purchasing is staggering and most consumers don't realize it until they see it side by side.
So our team did exactly that.

The same organic produce found in a Fresh Basket box rang up at $114 at a grocery store. While our Fresh Basket Individual Box costs $26, and Family Box cost, $39.
The Farmers Alliance eliminates the middlemen and creates a direct pipeline from regional farms to DC households. Making organic, locally grown food financially accessible across all eight wards.
Pre-orders are open now. First delivery by May 10th. 👉 freshbasket.organic
