Farmers Market 2020

We are EXCITED to announce that our Friday Night Farmers Markets are set to open on May 15! Hours remain from 4-7 pm however please be aware there will only be a few but essential vendors at our opening markets (13 vendors confirmed at this time, but this is subject to change). The numbers will increase as the season goes on if we can all be patient and adhere to the rather strict guidelines set forth by Alberta Health Services.
 
We are asking for your assistance in remaining at a safe social distance from each other and our Vendors (6′!) as well as there are now also restrictions to the total number of customers AND vendors in the market, and these may also change up or down with very little notice. We are also asking for understanding in the potential for delays in your shopping – again due to limits on the total number of customers allowed in the market area.
The weekly markets will not be a social gathering at this time. We ask that customers understand that we are not able to have a concession or picnic tables for visiting for now and that there will not be seating areas available. We will have markers on the ground to follow and we ask that you as customers are patient and understanding as needed. For instance, if possible, please limit the number of family members attending and respect that our playground is closed. We feel that if we can all adhere to these guidelines; we will all be able to have a Happy and Healthy Farmers Market season.
In the coming days we will be showcasing our vendors that are confirmed to be at the opening markets so you can do your research and know what you are interested in prior to arriving.
Please be aware that in this current situation things may always change. We are hoping for the best and planning for a successful market season for our community.
Asa continues to be Lakedell Ag’s Farmers Market Manager and she can be reached at 780-621-0763 if you are a vendor that is interested in coming or if you have any questions about the market for 2020.
