Arcadia Farm
Arcadia Farm is located just a few short miles from downtown Washington, DC, on the historic grounds of Woodlawn Estate.
Arcadia’s demonstration farm and educational children’s garden currently encompasses four acres, providing a sustainable model of agriculture to new farmers, students, and the public through hands-on community engagement.
Mobile Market
Arcadia’s Mobile Markets are farmers’ markets on wheels that deliver crates full of local, sustainably produced food across the national capital region, catering to underserved communities that don’t otherwise have access to fresh, affordable food.
​
Arcadia’s Mobile Markets promotes healthy lifestyle choices by engaging community members at market stops and students at schools in the preparation of local produce in cost-effective, nutritious ways.
Farm Camp
Arcadia Farm is a place of wonder and discovery. Campers are surrounded by a bounty of vegetables and beautiful spaces. The Groundhog Garden, Arcadia’s educational youth space, is a plot in the middle of the four-acre Arcadia Farm. It is designed specifically to engage the elementary-aged audience – to inspire them, to excite them, and to invoke questions and discoveries!
Field Trips
Arcadia Field Trip curriculum is centered around Fairfax County's Standards of Learning (SOLs) to ensure that what your students learn at the farm can be brought back to the classroom! Students will spend the day outside learning where their food comes from, tasting a variety of produce straight from the garden, and getting their hands dirty alongside our pollinators and compost companions!
