Why Farmers Markets are Essential During the COVID-19 Pandemic
Allowing our community to shop at a farmers market provides numerous benefits in an ideal environment that promotes social distancing while having less overall contact with people. While our overall food distribution chain seems to be unaffected at the moment, food that’s traveling from outside our state or country could have limitations imposed. A farmers market offers locally grown food to local communities. There is little chance for interruption, assuming markets are allowed to be carried out.
