”During these unprecedented times food and agriculture sectors are ‘essential businesses’ and ‘critical infrastructure’ and therefore must be treated as such by allowing our farmers to continue providing food to the American public. We may be somewhat inconvenienced and we have to operate differently than we are accustomed; it is necessary to maintain a safe wholesome food; protect one another and the public.” – State of Alabama Farmers Market Authority.

We ask that you all strictly adhere to the new guidelines below so that we can provide you with a safe and healthy option to shop local produce and foods. Thank you!
