The Pike Central Farm Market is putting on its First Annual Oyster and BBQ Festival on Saturday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
The market, one of three from Central Farm Markets, takes place on Saturdays at 11806 Rockville Pike in North Bethesda, in the Mid-Pike Plaza shopping center near the White Flint Metro station.
The founders of Chesapeake Gold Oysters will provide fresh oysters and teach those interested how to shuck oysters and about oyster aquaculture in Maryland.
The band “White Loafer” will join the event, which also includes barbecue, face painting and an opportunity to make your own apple cider with Central Farm Market’s antique apple press.
Central Farm Markets also runs the Bethesda Market on Sundays at Bethesda Elementary School. Past activities to go along with the markets include yoga demonstrations and the annual “Bake Bethesda A Pie” contest.
