Limited Number Allowed in Market

Public Health is currently limiting the number of people inside of the market at a time. Because of this, customers may experience a bit of line to get in when they arrive at the Market. The waiting line outside the market will be clearly marked for physically distancing and clear signage will guide customers through both the waiting line and the Market.

Additionally, while we encourage customers to try to send just one member of a household, we understand that your household may need to shop together to pick up needed items. (And, customers will need to leave your dogs at home this year – unless they have a service animal).”

Mask Up

Vendors and staff are required to wear masks. In accordance with King County Public Health guidelines, the Market is strongly urging customers to wear a mask as well.

Market Layout – Go with the flow

The Market site is in a slightly different location, still at Les Gove Park, just off of 12th Street, slightly east from where it’s been the past few years.auburn farms market, auburn wa international farmers market, auburn farmers market

There is just one entrance and exit to the market and a one-way flow of customers through the Market.

Vendor stalls are spaced 10 feet apart and markings on the ground indicate six feet from each vendor booth to help guide physical distancing requirements. Park restrooms are still currently closed to the public, but there is hand sanitizer available at the entrance and exit along with a hand washing station in the Market.

Staff and vendors will be sanitizing high touch surfaces throughout the day as well as washing hands often.

SNAP & EBT

The Market will continue to accept EBT and will be matching those EBT funds with SNAP Market Match. The EBT booth will be the first booth upon entering the Market for customers using EBT to get their tokens and then shop.
