Farmers Fishers Bakers Readies for 'Early November' Opening

The restaurant will open in a newly renovated space at the Washington Harbour on the Georgetown waterfront.

Farmers Fishers Bakers, the latest concept from the North Dakota Farmers Union and The Farm, will open at the Georgetown waterfront in November, according to a news release. The same restaurant group opened Founding Farmers in Foggy Bottom in 2008.

“We are so pleased to be opening a completely new restaurant at The Washington Harbour in Georgetown,” said Dan Simons, Partner/Concept Developer, Founding Farmers/Farmers Fishers Bakers restaurants, and Principal of Vucurevich Simons Advisory Group, in a prepared statement.

Farmers and Fishers was damaged in the April 2011 flood at the waterfront.
