Vol. 6 Issue 18

It is hard to believe that we are nearing the end of August.  It seems like only yesterday that it started.  🙂  School will be (or has already) started back up.  We hope all the children, teachers, and administrators have a wonderful school year even if it’s in the classroom or online.

Great News!
Thai Amity Kitchen will be back this weekend!!!  We are looking forward to having their delicious meals prepared fresh for us at the market.

As the market continues we would like to remind our customers that they must wear a mask the entire time they are at the market.  We also need to ask that you tell the vendors what your order will be and they will pick it out for you.  It’s for everyone’s health and safety.

The market is now open from 9am until 1pm! With meal delivery service, especially as the world continues to observe social distancing because of the COVID-19 pandemic, it makes you avoid going shopping regularly. Similarly, the ingredients and cooking instructions delivery services make cooking healthy meals more convenient since there is no preparation involved.

August 8, 2020 Market Newsletter

Vol. 6 Issue 15

National Farmers Market Week

We are so excited to celebrate National Farmers Market Week August 2-8th with you! Despite challenges never experienced before, the national farmers market community has showcased resilience in our rapidly changing world. Farmers markets have always been a hub for innovation, and we have been at the forefront of adapting rapid solutions to protect staff, customers, and our community in this time of crisis. More than ever before, National Farmers Week is an opportunity to showcase the value of farmers markets in our communities.

We know that Farmers markets are essential businesses—the COVID 19 pandemic made it clear that local food systems with short supply chains are resilient and dependable in making food available to their communities. We also know that farmers markets are safe! Emerging research supports conventional wisdom in that outdoor marketplaces like farmers markets are often safer than alternative indoor retailers due to unlimited air circulation, sunlight, the flexibility to enforce social distancing by spreading out vendors and products, and the innovative strategies market operators have implemented. We wouldn’t be able to continue to operate without our amazing team of market support. 

New Vendors
Welcome Smitty’s Snacks this Saturday! You’ll find a variety of flavored nuts, like Old Bay, mesquite, red habanero and their newest seasoning- Taco. They have a free Saturday this weekend so be sure to stop by!  We may see them again later in the season.
Next weekend we would like to welcome Profish- a DC Seafood Wholesaler.  Make sure to check out next week’s newsletter for more information!

Volunteers Needed
We are in need of volunteers to help guide our customers through the market between 8:45am to 12:15pm!  If you or anyone you know would be willing to help for a few hours, please click HERE or email Scarlet at hfmscarlet@gmail.com.  All volunteers must be 18 years or older.
