The Starr Hill Farmers Market is located at the historic Jefferson School City Center in Charlottesville, Virginia. The market is a local, producer-only market primarily featuring farms, small food businesses, value-added products, and a few local artisans. We accept SNAP, provide Virginia Fresh Match, and promote the Seniors Farmers Market Nutrition Incentive Program. The 2026 market will run from May 17 through Nov. 22.
The Jefferson School City Center, formerly known as the historic Jefferson School (which earned its historic designation in 2006), serves as a vital community hub in the heart of Charlottesville. This dynamic center provides a range of services and programs designed to enrich and support the local community.
