Step Out
It's mid-week and you need a break, some fresh air, and a little change of scenery. Great news! We know a place! Cruise over to the overflow parking on on Talbot Street (some call it "209 Washington Ave, La Plata") and check in with the 3rd Wednesday lineup, June 17, 2026, 9AM - 2PM.

These folks will be your willing audience: Lempira Coffee Roasters Charles County

It's MD250, Y'all!
It's the 4th Saturday of April and the traditional day to Celebrate La Plata, all caps! This year we're celebrating not just recovering from the 2002 tornado -- which is how CLP started, btw -- but 250 years of our part in the history of our nation. (Go ahead, try to pronounce "sesquicentennial" without stumbling.) Stop by to see us in the morning for the freshest products, then take a stroll over to Town Hall for the festivities. Or reverse that. We'll be open Saturday, Apri
