Our weekly farmer’s market, Capital Harvest on the Plaza (CHoP) features plenty of farm-fresh edibles and artisanal novelties. CHoP’s mission is to foster a strong sense of community, stimulate economic development, and improve the quality of life for market-goers by providing local, sustainably sourced food and products. CHoP is sponsored by TCMA (A Drew Company), the exclusive manager of the Ronald Reagan Building and International Trade Center. Be sure to stop by our information booth and stock up on recipes and tips for maintaining a healthy and socially responsible lifestyle.
