COURTESY POST: "Social-Distancing" Adjustments @ Mesa Farmers Market for Saturday 11 April 2020



According to an information update on the market organizer's website, since March 21st the Mesa Farmers Market will remain open with reduced hours, operating from 8am - 11am.

Pioneer Park
526 East Main Street
Mesa, Arizona 85203


________________________________________________________________

Many ( some or all? ) of the vendors will be offering a pre-order option so that you can spend minimal time on your trip and return home quickly with your groceries.

The following is a list of changes that were made to navigate the new reality :
  • We STRONGLY ENCOURAGE pre-ordering your food as it will be wrapped in advance and will keep our attendance levels at any one given time low and sustainable for future weeks.
  • We will be setting up on the edge of the park near the park and ride to give guests easy access to the vendors.
  • Only ‘essential’ vendors will be present, we are streamlining our vendor list to critical options for grocery and hot to-go food, excluding our regular flea vendors.
  • All regular music and programming has been cancelled.
  • In addition to the hand washing stations at individual vendor’s booths, we will be providing our own hand washing station for guests as well as hand sanitizer at the info booth.
