SUPPORT LOCAL BUSINESSES

The COVID-19 pandemic has been difficult for our small businesses. Consider supporting them with these tips.

KNOW BEFORE YOU GO Many businesses have limited hours or offerings right now, so check online before visiting. If they have social media accounts, look there, too. Some businesses use website platforms that they can’t update themselves.

LOOK FOR NEW SERVICES Some shops are offering special hours for at-risk populations or visits by appointment. Many entrepreuners have also expanded their online ordering options or are providing delivery or curbside pickup. And some restaurants are offering special carryout deals.

GRAB A GIFT CARD Pick up a gift card to provide much-needed financial support now and treat yourself or someone else later!

BE KIND! This is a stressful time for most people. Please be patient if your shopping or dining experience doesn’t go as planned.

Stop in and see us!

We’ve missed you at the Market! Ready to enjoy your food in our indoor dining area or outside by a fire pit? We’ve got limited dine-in seating available. Interested in spending as little time in public as possible? All our merchants offer convenient carryout service, and we’re taking many precautions to keep you safe.

Be patient, flexible and kind as everyone gets used to these changes.

Here’s what we’re doing:

Tables are spaced at least 6 feet apart to meet social distancing guidelines, and seating is limited to groups of 10 customers or less. We’ve placed signs on the floor to indicate proper social distancing. High-touch surfaces and items will be sanitized regularly, including but not limited to door handles, push bars, tabletops and trash cans. Market staff will wear masks, wash hands often and wear gloves while busing tables. Hand sanitizer stations are available for community use. Staff and vendors will stay home if they are sick. Here’s what we’re asking of customers: Consider using carryout, curbside delivery and third-party delivery options, when available. Please stay home if you are feeling ill or are showing symptoms. Be mindful to stay at least 6 feet away from other patrons and staff. Before moving tables, please ask a Market staff member. Use hand sanitizer stations. Consider wearing a mask or face covering when interacting with Market merchants and staff. Do not come to the Market with groups larger than 10 people.
