Guide du restaurant

Happy National Farmer's Day! Did you know that we are owned by over 47,000 family farmers? Our story began back in 2005 when the members of North Dakota Farmers Union (NDFU) began looking for ways to bring their products directly to consumers. They were interested in developing a restaurant where guests could have access to, and benefit from, food grown, raised, and harvested on American family farms. Where the foundation of the restaurant is rooted in the notion that family farming was, and remains, essential to our nation’s well being. NDFU soon partnered with now co-owners Michael Vucurevich and Dan Simons, and with that… Farmers Restaurant Group opened Founding Farmers DC in 2008. We are so thankful for all of our farmers and everything they do for us every day. To our all our American family farmers: cheers to you!

Green is our favorite color. The People’s Choice Award, which is voted on by the public, named Farmers Restaurant Group as their favorite green restaurants in the nation! We are SO thankful & thrilled by this news. Our sibling restaurant Founding Farmers Reston Station also tied for the "Near-Zero Waste Award" for receiving the most GreenPoints™ in the Waste category! Incredible.
