Ok folks, so much worry & stress in the world. How about a giveaway?! We will be giving away new market merchandise every week for the rest of the month! To enter, pre-order using link in bio and tag 2 friends. Winners will be announced weekly and you can claim your prize when you pick up your pre-orders each Saturday at the Market between 10 am - 2 pm! #giveaway #somegoodnews #joyisalsocontagious #blacksburgfarmersmarket #supportsmallbusiness

Update to our Loyal Supporters: Wednesday markets

Update to our Loyal Supporters:

Wednesday markets are postponed until May. This is a moving target and we will continue to update as the situation progresses. We will be re-opening the market this Saturday but will be maintaining the "winter hours" of 10 am-2 pm. We will be operating in the same manner as in previous weeks with a limited number of customers being admitted at a time and will spacing vendors out as much as possible. The BIG difference is that we are really pushing customers (and you can help in this effort) to pre-order online so that we can substantially limit "browsing". We currently have 2 options for pre-orders. See the links in bio for both options. For the market site (Lulu's Local Food), we offer a free one week trial. After that, you can pick a subscription that best fits your needs. The options offered are weekly, monthly, seasonally (3 months), bi-annually and annually. We are consistently adding vendors and new products to this site so be sure to check in often! As an alternative, we are promoting an online document for direct to consumer online sales that can be found below. The goal is to get customers in and out as quickly as possible with the least amount of handling and potential exposure. We will be queueing 2 lines, one for pre-orders and one for non-pre-orders. We will be admitting pre-orders ahead of non. This is to aid in the encouragement of online ordering. We sincerely appreciate your continued support and remain committed to providing the healthiest local food possible during this trying time. #inthistogether #hereforyou #localfood #covidsucks #blacksburgfarmersmarket

New Guidelines for Farmers Markets!! This is good

New Guidelines for Farmers Markets!! This is good news! Please see below to find out the most recent VDACS guidelines for Farmers Markets. Note: this will go into effect at the Blacksburg Market next Saturday 4/4. We will be closed this Saturday and next Wednesday except for pre-order pick-ups only between 10am-noon on Saturday and 2pm-4pm on Wednesday 4/1. Link in bio for preorders. We will have our own online platform shortly.
We will be taking additional measures to increase social distancing:

Market managers will adjust booth assignments to allow as much space for social distancing as possible.
All vendors are to operate with a minimal display, out of their vehicles if possible.
All vendors must reorganize their space so that customers cannot enter their booth to touch or browse through products.
Each vendor should display a menu of items for customers to order from. Share early and often on social media so customers can come prepared!
Vendors must bag products for their customers. Items like produce should be pre-bagged whenever possible to reduce touchpoints. Reusable bags cannot be used at this time.
Ideally, there should be one employee bagging produce and the other handling money. Gloves are available to use!
We will continue to push customers to pre-order/pay for items to decrease the density of customers.
Vendors should do all they can to reduce touchpoints at the point of sale. Please encourage customers to prepay online whenever feasible. Vendors will wipe down screens and card readers with disinfectant after each customer, and use hand sanitizer.
Market Managers will monitor customer density and restrict entry to the market as needed to ensure there is ample room for social distancing.
We will be indicating the safe social distance space of 6 feet.

Friends, Due to new restrictions handed down by t

Friends,

Due to new restrictions handed down by the Governors office, the Blacksburg Farmers Market will only be operating via an online ordering platform. Our goal is to be up and running by 4/4. You will be able to order from your favorite vendors and have your order delivered to you curbside or in a designated parking space. Think Clicklist for the Farmers Market! More info to come. We fully understand the need for a local food supply chain to our loyal and devout customers. We ARE here for you!! #wewillovercome #covid19 #blacksburgfarmersmarket #weareessential #farm2you
