The Columbia Heights Community Marketplace builds and strengthens this Washington, D.C. neighborhood’s culture, community and economy through local, sustainably produced food, entertainment, the arts and community service. It does this by educating and empowering community members, especially youth, to learn about and gain employment in local food, farming, entertainment and community service. The result is a community full of healthy people eating healthful food grown near home and putting their skills to work building a strong, local economy.
