The site of the 17th Street Farmers' Market has been a public gathering place since 1737, and is one of America’s oldest public markets. The Farmers’ Market has always been at the intersection of local commerce for two reasons—the proximity to the river and the fact that Main Street served as the main road between Richmond and Williamsburg and nearby Shockoe Creek was used by small boats bringing shellfish to awaiting customers. When the Virginia General Assembly officially moved to Richmond in 1779, a "publik market" was established. Once a thriving hub of commerce and trading, the Farmers’ Market has seen many incarnations.

Founded in 1935, Historic Richmond Foundation is the largest and oldest non-profit organization devoted to preserving the historic assets that define the unique character of the Richmond area. The agency has been instrumental in saving hundreds of historic structures, was a leader in the designation of the city’s first historic district (St. John’s) in Church Hill, and helped establish the city’s Commission of Architectural Review a half century ago. From its earliest efforts to save the Adam Craig house, HRF has pioneered the concept of adaptive reuse of old buildings. It maintains a special Revolving Fund to purchase, renovate and resell historic properties and publishes books about the city’s distinctive architecture.
