WMFM COVID-19 Guidelines

During this time, it is important to have fresh, local produce readily accessible. The market might look a little different this year as we adhere to social distancing guidelines. We kindly ask you to abide by the following list of practices to best protect yourselves, shoppers and our community from COVID-19.

COVID-19 Guidelines for the West Milford Farmer’s Market

We will be limiting the number of shoppers in the market at one time as well as separating the vendor booths further from one another.

·        Enter and exit the market through designated entrances and exits and wait for a volunteer to tell you to enter.

·        Wear a face covering while in the designated market area.

·        Maintain six feet of distance between yourself and other shoppers.

·        Avoid unnecessary contact with products unless you intend to purchase them.

·        One shopper will be allowed to enter a vendor booth at a time.  Please wait for the person before you to leave the booth before entering.

·        Shop alone. Please do not bring children to the market during this time. Think of the market as an essential activity, not a social activity.

·        If you are sick, stay home.

·        Please consider using online services from our vendors to preorder your groceries, we will post a link for all vendors participating.

·        Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth.

·        Wash all produce before use.

·        Regularly wash or wipe down your reusable shopping bags.

·        Continue to wash your hands with soap for at least 20 seconds.
