Shop at your community farmers’ market for healthy, fresh food.  You can buy fresh fruits and vegetables and other foods like milk, eggs, meat, and cheese.  Most community farmers’ markets and farm stands will be open this spring, summer, and fall. 

Because of COVID-19, farmers and markets are working hard to make shopping at the farmers’ market as safe as possible.  Watch this video to learn more about shopping at the farmers’ market this season: Safe Shopping is a SNAP at the Farmers' Market 

This year, things will be a little different at the farmers’ market. Make a shopping list before you go, bring hand sanitizer and look for hand washing stations at the market to clean your hands often.  Bring a shopping bag to carry your food home.  Bring your SNAP/EBT card, eWIC, or FMNP checks if you plan to pay with these.

Follow these easy steps to keep your family and your food safe:

1. Do not go to the market if you are feeling sick.
   
2. Wear a mask that covers your nose and mouth.
   
3. Bring and use hand sanitizer.
   
4. When possible, only one person from your family should go to the market.
   
5. Leave pets at home.
   
6. Do not touch your face while you are away from home.
   
7. Wash your hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, when you get home.
   
8. Wash fresh produce under running water before you put it away.  Do not use soap to wash fruits and vegetables.
   
9. Wash the counter and sink with soap and water after washed produce is put away.
