The WellnessWORKS Farmers Market, produced by Diverse Markets Management (DMM) in partnership with the US Government launches its 2012 season on Wednedsday May 2.  The Market, now in its third year, is part of the WellnessWORKS initiative, a program to educate and stimulate federal government employees about health and wellness issues, based on Michelle Obama’s directive.  It is held each Wednesday at the DC campus of the OPM building at 1900 E St NW, as a pilot program that will then expand nationwide to all government agencies and buildings. The market is intended to showcase and provide healthy foods and nutritional items for people.  Additionally, the intention is to highlight sustainability by featuring only locally grown or produced products.  The market will operate every Wednesday from 10am - 2pm through October. 

Situated in Mt. Vernon Triangle, at the corner of 5th and Eye Streets NW just north of Chinatown in downtown DC, the market boasts a prime position in a growing high-end residential neighborhood and just steps from the Convention Center and popular restaurants such as Busboys & Poets.

The market will feature a diverse mix of art, crafts, imports, antiques, collectibles and furniture every Sunday from 10 – 4 p.m. The market will also highlight local specialty food items such as fruits and vegetables, flowers, preserves, prepared foods and beverages. In addition to some low-key live entertainment, seating for the community will be provided to enjoy this new neighborhood gathering place.
