So, I know that there is one in Reston/Lake Ann on Saturdays from 8-12 (May-October).

Also one in Falls Church on Saturdays from 8-12.

Looking for more options. Any on Sunday?

The Dale City farmers market is open on Sunday and it is well worth the trip. There are two or three farmers that bring produce up from the Northern Neck. The quality of the produce is very high and much cheaper than anything around here. The ride down 95 on a sunday morning is a breeze.

Dale City Blvd & Minniville Road
Dale City , VA 22193

Here si a list from the county.

Lorton has one on Sundays at the VRE lot.

What happened to the Centreville faremrs market?

There's one every Wednesday from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. at the Sherwood Hall Library. It's the intersection of Sherwood Hall Lane and Parker's Lane, about a block from Mount Vernon Hospital. Address is 2501 Sherwood Hall Lane.

There's generally a good selection of vendors; not just fruits and vegetables but also meats, breads (including Great Harvest), flowers, and sometimes potted plants and garden plants. Everyone's really friendly.

Warning that by around 10:00 it gets really crowded (very popular with the older folks) and parking becomes an issue, especially considering the farmer's market itself takes up 1/3rd of the parking spaces.

Oh, and if your a Dem, you can say hello to your fellow partisans: they're there ever week; which shouldn't be a surprised since it's not like their going to work or anything productive.

Westover Shopping Center in Arlington has a Sunday Farmer's Market.

I like the Goochland Farmers Market because that's where I can see Meade perform

arlington and leesburg FM's, both on saturday mornings, are the best ones in the area. arlington is the best.

decent one in mclean as well. reston one is mediocre.

Once in awhile I'll go on a country drive and buy produce from a local farm. Kingstown also has a farmer's market near the Giant.

Bit of a drive but there is a sunday market outside The Plains, small but sincere. Magic Mike's ribs alone are worth the drive.

Falls Church kicks the shit out of all the aforementioned ones. Excellent produce and other items. It's the only farmers' market worth the drive. It is on par with Eastern Market but not as far. There is also a decent place a block away that sells mostly local products at decent prices. Forget the name, but it has "local" in it.

First time in history a farmers market has been described as kicking the shit out of all others

Depends if you want produce or flea market stuff, but Alexandrias for produce is pretty good. I had a friend who used to drive up from Stafford to sell there, said it was costly.
