Located near Loyola鈥檚 campus, the Govans Farmers Market provides the York Road community of north Baltimore with affordable, fresh, local produce. Market selections include returning favorites serving fresh, locally grown fruits and vegetables, cold crabs and seafood, baked goods, and hot Mexican food, including tacos and burritos.
Home of the farmers market and York Road Initiative, Loyola鈥檚 property at 5104 York Road will be renovated to create a community hub for the university鈥檚 community development effort along York Road. The renovations will also strengthen Loyola鈥檚 sustainability and food equity efforts on the property, including the farmers market.
