The Wednesday Green Valley Village Farmers and Artisans Market will be reopening with modifications on Wednesday, October 7, 2020 from 9am – 1pm (Fall hours), where you will find your favorite farm, food, and artisan vendors!  We are grateful for the continued support of our community during these unprecedented and challenging times.

We are closely monitoring the status of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, and our top priority is the safety and well-being of our vendors, customers, and staff. To operate safely at the market and follow Pima County Health department guidelines, we require that everyone wear face masks, maintain physical distancing of 6 feet from others at all times, wash hands frequently, and stay home if you or someone in your household is sick. We ask customers not to congregate, and all customer seating areas will be closed. Food vendors will be selling food to go. To shop quickly and efficiently, grab a vendor map from the market info booth! Please let vendors serve you for your shopping needs. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Please read our COVID-19 market requirements (www.heirloomfm.org/covid-19) before visiting the market.

BE A HEALTH ADVOCATE FOR YOURSELF, YOUR LOVED ONES, AND YOUR COMMUNITY.

Do you part to keep Arizona Farmers Markets safe and keep markets open as pivotal access points for farmers to sell fresh produce. In the interest of the continued health of our community, we strongly advise customers, vendors, and staff to follow these best practices according to public health guidelines:

  • Do not attend the markets if you or someone in your household is sick.
  • Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
  • Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially: after going to the bathroom; before eating; after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing; before/during/after preparing food; after touching an animal or animal waste; after touching garbage.
  • Use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol if soap and water are not available. Always wash hands with soap and water if hands are visibly dirty.
  • Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.
  • Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash. If you don’t have a tissue, cough or sneeze into your upper sleeve, not your hands.
  • Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces. This includes thoroughly washing produce before consumption and regularly washing your reusable produce bags.
