Live Music: Mike Setti
A Virginia native, Mike brings his acoustic guitar and vocal talents to the DMV area with his acoustic performances. Any given weekend finds him providing the soundtrack to your morning farmers market run, initiating singalongs at the afternoon pub crawl, or closing the evening down at your favorite local watering hole.
Mike's catalogue includes current cross-spectrum hits, that classic you totally forgot about (but still know every lyric to), and even a few of his originals that have become crowd favorites over the years.

Cherrydale Farmers Market now accepts Yiftee!
In 2012, Yiftee was founded with the mission of creating more ways for local dollars to stay local. They do this through their Community Cards: a single card redeemable at a curated network of local merchants, so funds stay in our community at the businesses you choose.
All Cherrydale Farmers Market vendors accept Yiftee, so if you have a card you are hoping to use, or an occasion where you are deciding on the perfect gift to give, Yiftee is a great way to support our local vendors!

📰 Field to Table Articles of Interest 📰
Produce Loss this Season
This spring brought unusually challenging weather to farms in the MidAtlantic, including a late freeze in April that hit just as many crops were beginning to bloom. As a result, Field to Table vendors experienced significant losses in fruits and early-season produce.
Because of this, you may notice a more limited local selection at the market this Spring-Fall. To keep vendors stocked and meet customer demand, some farmers will be supplementing with carefully sourced produce from outside the region. All vendors will have signage with where their produce is sourced from if it is not coming directly from their farm.
We appreciate your understanding—and as always, supporting our vendors means supporting farmers navigating a tough season.
AFAC Donations
Field to Table is so happy to be Arlington Food Assistance Center’s 2026 Community Partner of the Year! Through our partnership, we have been able to provide 42,000 pounds of food to Arlingtonians in facing food insecurity.
This past weekend, Field to Table accepted this Community Partner Award from AFAC. We are so happy to contribute to local food access and food security in Arlington!
How can you get involved? We have donation bins each week at our market. You can donate fresh or nonperishable food (no glass, please)! That gets picked up by AFAC’s amazing volunteers!
