Season recap
2024: A bigger table
Growth was the story of 2024. More producers, more programs, more partners. Bonus Bucks reached more families than any previous season, and our chef partnerships expanded into evening dinners that brought market ingredients straight into DC dining rooms.
Highlights from 2024
- Record participation in the Bonus Bucks nutrition assistance program
- Expanded volunteer corps powered new community outreach
- Pop-up chef dinners highlighted market produce at partner restaurants
- New educational programming for school groups visited regularly through fall
Scenes from the 2024 season
By the closing weekends in November, both markets had grown noticeably without losing the small-market feel that started it all.
