If you’re like us, you probably look forward to spring and the reopening of Virginia farmers markets where you can peruse fresh produce, flowers, and locally-made wares. But with social distancing rules in place due to COVID-19, farmers markets have had to adjust to follow the current guidelines. However, you can still support your local Virginia farmers markets during this time, as many have shifted to online sales, curbside pick-up, and even delivery services. Shop at these farmers markets and regional farm stores to support small businesses and help Virginia’s farmers make it through this difficult time.
