Muskogee Farmers’ Market – Opening Day!
Saturday, May 2nd 2020
8:00am-12:00pm
Muskogee Civic Center – Parking Lot
Good News! City officials recognize the farmers market is an essential activity, and are in support of opening the market, as long as we put some precautions in place.
Over half our regular vendors plan to attend on May 2nd 2020. These vendors have been educated on the City’s requirements and we have new rules in place to help keep everyone safe and lower the risk of spreading corona-virus, by doing the following:
• Setting up in every other market space to help maintain distance.
• Wearing a mask or face covering when customers are present.
• Restricting customers to one person, when selecting and paying for items.
• Avoiding hand-to-hand contact by placing customers’ bags on table versus handing to them, and when exchanging money.
• Requesting and reminding customers to maintain six feet of distance between themselves and vendors or volunteers.
• Having hand-washing stations and hand sanitizer available – vendors are asked to wash their hands frequently.
• Making sure that vendors are feeling healthy before attending market (without fever, shortness of breath or coughing).
Most importantly, we encourage vendors and customers to maintain distance and keep each other safe. See you at the market!
