On Tuesday Geary Community Farmer's Market officials announced that there would not be any market on July 2 and July 9 due to concerns about COVID-19. Now they have a new plan.
The Market will operate in the parking lot at JC Naz Church, 1025 South Washington in Junction City from 4-7 p.m. There will be items for sale ranging from fresh fruits and vegetables to baked goods, meats and more produced by local farmers and gardeners. Vendors will be spread out and walkways widened for social distancing.
At this time, some special guidelines are in place.
• If you have a mask, please wear it.
• Please maintain at least 6 feet of physical distance from other customers in walkways and while waiting at vendors’ stalls.
• Come to the market with a purchase plan in mind and limit social visiting with vendors and other shoppers.
• Bring as few family members as possible to attend the market.
• Please do not touch or sample items unless you are given permission by the vendor. Vendors are happy to help select and bag items for you.
• Some vendors accept pre-orders for quick and easy pick-up. Check our online vendor list at https://www.livewellgearycounty.org/farmers-market for more information.
• Wash your hands and/or use hand sanitizer before and after attending the market.
