Farmers’ markets are coming back to Manassas and Prince William County.
This year, Historic Manassas Inc. is hosting their Manassas Farmers Market during peak season, which will run through mid-November.
The Market is split between Thursdays at the Harris Pavilion in Historic Downtown Manassas and Saturdays at the Prince William Commuter Lot across from Baldwin Elementary School.
New vendors coming to the Manassas Farmers Market this year include:
Stoney Creek Cigars
Vazaroma Handcrafted Products
In addition, the Market also has a SNAP Program. It allows people with food stamps to use them to shop at the market. This happens through a grant that allows the Market to match those people with their dollar-for-dollar program.
Manassas railway festival to bring return of in-person events
The Manassas Railway Heritage Festival is coming down the tracks this year.
This year’s event will mark the 26th time the festival has been held in the city, which celebrates the history of the railroads. The festival will include model train displays, memorabilia, specialty vendors, as well as live performances.
As the coronavirus pandemic continues to be an issue of concern, how the festival operates has been made. One significant change is the train rides that are a hallmark of the festival that runs between Manassas and Clifton won’t be in operation this year to uphold social distancing rules.
