The Auburn Farmers Market opened June 6 for the season at Les Gove Park, 1140 Auburn Way S. The market runs from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. every Sunday through Sept. 19.

In accordance with COVID-19 safety guidelines, all staff, vendors and volunteers will be required to self-screen with a set list of health questions before they enter the market. Foot traffic will be directed one way and masks will be encouraged, but not required, among visitors.

Customers are encouraged to plan ahead and bring a shopping list for the market. The market will continue to accept EBT and will be matching those EBT funds with SNAP Market Match. The EBT booth will be near the entrance of the market for customers using EBT to get their tokens and then shop.
