08.31.2020 - Rain or Shine at the Market Tonight
/
It's Market Monday! We're having a hard time believing we're at the end of August, but here we are. The closing of this month has us dreaming of fall, even if it is still over a month away for us! We're looking forward to a change in the season that will mean new varieties of produce and cooler weather, but in the meantime, we're so grateful for the summer bounty our vendors are sharing with us each week.
As a weekly reminder in these pandemic times, we will continue to provide hand-washing facilities and will maintain a setup that allows for plenty of space between vendor booths. We have masks and gloves on hand for anyone who needs them - just stop by the HQ booth and ask. Please continue to limit to one party per booth at a time, and maintain a safe distance from your fellow shoppers.
We hope to see you at the market.
With Gratitude,
Gabby Lothrop
Market Director
