FRESHFARM Downtown Silver Spring Market

Keep your market visit simple and short; buy what you need and do not linger, socialize, or congregate in the market space. DC, Maryland, and Virginia have all issued shelter-in-place orders, with exceptions for completing essential tasks such as food purchasing. Households should have no more than one or two people in their shopping group. If possible, leave children and senior family members at home. No pets are permitted in the market. Wear a mask of some sort before entering the market space, in accordance with the CDC recommendation regarding the use of cloth face coverings. Wash your hands (for 20 seconds) when you enter the market space. We have handwashing stations available! Maintain a distance of at least 6 feet from other shoppers, especially when in line. Market managers will be reminding shoppers to keep their distance. Pre-order with your favorite vendors as much as possible for quick and contact-free pickup at the market. If you cannot pre-order, bring your list.

Hi Pam, you can use your EBT card at the market information tent. We will give you tokens that can be spent with the vendors on any SNAP eligible purchases. Plus, we'll match what you spend in SNAP, up to $10 per market, and your matching tokens can be spent on any item at the market!

We are following many COVID safety precautions, including limited capacity within the market, handwashing/sanitizing stations, one way flow of traffic within the market, social distancing between vendors and shoppers, and no eating in the market. All shoppers and vendors are required to wear masks. You can find more details at https://www.freshfarm.org/markets/downtown-silver-spring
