The New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets has produced the following documents for Farmers' Markets to follow in order to remain open (and considered an essential business) during the COVID-19 Outbreak. And please follow updated info on our "Updates" page.
If you have questions or would like advice on the safety measures your market needs to take, please contact us.
If you would like to implement online selling for your market to minimize contact, there are options for helping your market to implement an online ordering system. Many of the platforms listed for farmers to sell directly to customers can be used for vendors to sell through the market (see above). However, if your market has farmers who are unable or unwilling to create their own online store, we can help to create a system that will work for your needs.
If you are receiving inquiries about why the markets are remaining open we can help you to create a statement that fully explains the reasons for keeping markets open.
There are lots of opportunities to market and buy Wayne County produce! Wayne County, the fifth largest ag producing county in the state, grows and produces more than $104 million of fresh fruits, vegetables, livestock and milk.
Support our local farms and purchase your fresh fruits and vegetables in local farm stands or at town farmers’ markets.
