Yes, we’re open during rain unless there’s a major weather event. We will
also keep you informed about the storm status, if there is one, as soon as
we know it through both facebook & instagram. We are very confident that
there will be an abundance of various fruits and veggies at this week’s
market. If you don’t see something, please ask us at the green market tent
and we’ll point you in the right direction.
