- Time: Market hours have historically been 10am\u20132pm

What to Expect Under the Green Barns
The market takes its name from the cluster of green-roofed barns that anchor the property, a setting that feels more like a rural fairground than a parking-lot pop-up. Vendors have traditionally set up both inside the barns and around them, with a Sunday-only schedule that keeps the crowd unhurried \u2014 more browsing, less rushing. That said, our records show no confirmed recent activity at this market, so it's worth phoning ahead or checking the market's website before you build a morning around it.
If the Seldom Realms Glassworks booth is indeed there this week, it would add a craft dimension to the usual farm-stand lineup, worth a stop if you're building a fall table or looking for a distinctive, locally made gift ahead of the holidays. But treat that detail as unconfirmed until you see it for yourself.
Make a Morning of It
A Sunday market visit pairs naturally with a slow lunch nearby. If you're continuing on toward Rappahannock County afterward, the Laurel Mills Store in Castleton has long been known for smoked ribs, sandwiches, and a well-chosen wine selection. As with the market itself, we haven't seen recent confirmation of its current hours, so a quick call to (540) 937-3015 before you detour is a smart move.
