On Saturday, May 18, John Lovaas received recognition for serving as manager of the Reston Farmers Market manager for 26 years. Lovaas started the market on a spring Saturday in 1998 when Reston’s founder Robert E. Simon and Del. Ken Plum joined him for the official opening.


This year it was Supervisor Alcorn who officially honored Lovaas by reading a proclamation and presenting Lovaas with a plaque. The proclamation focused on all Lovaas has done over the years and ended with: 


"Now, therefore, be it resolved that the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors on behalf of all Fairfax County residents, does hereby thank John Lovaas for his contributions to the community and outstanding stewardship of the Reston Farmers Market."
