The 2021 farmers market season is here and local markets across DeKalb County are preparing to open.
While last year s season saw many unforeseen guidelines due to the COVID-19 pandemic, markets across the state had to get creative. However, the new season will open with plenty of excitement and pre-covid guidelines.
The Alabama Department of Agriculture and Industries and State of Alabama Farmers Market Authority Director Don Wambles said their current recommendations are for markets to operate under normal pre-COVID-19 guidelines.
He said this will allow market vendors and customers to assume personal responsibility for themselves.
âWe are looking forward to a great market season,â said Wambles.
