COVID-19 Updates on Farms & Markets
Many of our local farmers' markets will be closed due to concerns over COVID-19, but farmers still have lots of produce at the height of our growing season. While area farmers are taking extra health and safety precautions on their farms, they are also collaborating with other small businesses to find ways to safely get fresh vegetables and fruit into the hands of consumers. Check back for updates to this page in the coming days.
