Mother Nature won last week. Last Saturday was the first time in twelve seasons that the winter farmers market had to be cancelled due to the weather! There is no snow in the forecast for this upcoming Saturday, only more cold weather. Don’t worry, you will be nice and warm inside our heated greenhouse. Enjoy shopping from sixteen local farms and small businesses inside our green house, and two food trucks in the parking lot. The Whoo(pie) Wagon will be selling their delicious whoopie pies and Empanada Dada’s food truck will be serving up hot empanadas. National Sharpening Co. will be back again this week to sharpen your knives, scissors and garden tools. Drop your items to be sharpened off at National Sharpening Co’s van, which will be parked in front of the greenhouse. Your items will be sharpened while you shop inside at the market.
Entrance to the greenhouse will be through the main store so we can more easily control the number of shoppers inside at one time, and no one will have to wait outside in the cold if a line is required to ensure there is sufficient room for social distancing in the greenhouse! Face coverings are now required at the farmers market. The air vents in the greenhouse will remain open for fresh air ventilation. Please be assured we will still be taking all the necessary precautions to keep all our shoppers and vendors safe throughout this season. Please note that the greenhouse doors will be opened for customers unable to safely use the stairs in our store.
