As we start 2021 we find ourselves in the third lockdown within a year which is likely to affect the way we all lead our lives at the moment. The Government guidance allows essential food market stalls to continue so Hexham Farmers’ Market will continue with its exisiting measures which minimise the risk of COVID transmission:
- Keep 2m distance between yourself, other customers and producers
- Sanitise your hands frequently
- Paid contactless if possible
- Wear a face covering if possible
With this lockdown we are being asked to stay at home unless the journey is essential, so we would ask you also to:
- Shop alone if you can
- Not gather in groups or spend time chatting to friends
- Order in advance if you can
