Everyone Loves Pre-Orders!

Have you tried the LRFM pre-order site?  Everyone loves it!  Customers love it because you can get exactly what you want, order from multiple vendors at once, pre-pay and speed up trips to the market, and, best of all, sleep in and still know your favorites will be there whenever you arrive.  Vendors love pre-orders because it helps them plan, guarantees a sale, helps with efficient preparation for the market, and prevents food waste.  It’s a win-win!  Try it out today for pick up in Saturday’s market!  And grab anything else you might need (or just want!) at Barrett Elementary School on Saturday, September 26, from 8:00 am to 12:00 pm.   We’ll see you (and your face masks) at the Market!

Market Policy Reminders:

No changes as Arlington moves to Phase 3

  • Face coverings are required for all persons attending the market.  Vendors are also required to wear face masks, as well as food-handling gloves.  
  • All customers should enter the market through the Barrett School parking lot entrance closest to N. Henderson.   Only one-way traffic will be allowed in the market with the exit in the parking lot closest to N. Park.  Once they have completed their shopping, customers can return to the N. Henderson entrance via the sidewalk near the school behind the vendor tents.
  • Gatekeepers will be monitoring how many customers are in market space at any one time in order to comply with the requirements of physical distancing.  Please be patient as there may be an appropriately-spaced line to enter.
  • Almost all food sold in the market will be prepackaged to minimize browsing.  Discussions with individual vendors should in compliance with the 6-foot physical distancing rule. 
  • Credit card payments are encouraged by most vendors.
  • Only one adult family member should enter the market to pick up purchases.
  • Kindly leave kids at home. We love children, but they add to crowding at market and pose a risk to our senior shoppers.
  • Please don’t come to market if you are unwell or at high-risk.
  • Wash your hands thoroughly as soon as you return home.
  • If you have any concerns, don’t hesitate to ask one of the market managers.
