Sunday marked Juneteenth, but today we observe the holiday also known as Freedom Day.
As you’ve seen from previous posts, I like to celebrate every occasion with food. What better way to support a local Black-Owned Business than by dining at one? Depending on how far you’re looking to travel for food, you can always check out this great website that lists Black-Owned Businesses by state (although it hasn’t been updated since September 2021) or EatOkra.com.
Specific to the Northern Virginia area, here are some of my favorites:
- Pie Gourmet, Vienna
- Blacknerd Coffee
- Uncle Fred’s BBQ Smoke Shack, Reston
- McLean Pizza & Subs, McLean
- Makers Union, Reston
- Also check out the local farmers markets — you’ll often find smaller shops there to support
