At Exhibition Park in Lethbridge, the annual farmers’ market will return for its 50th year this Saturday, but organizers say things will look a little different. “The best way I can explain it is it’ll be similar to what you’ve experienced in the grocery store,” Lethbridge and District Exhibition CEO Rudy Friesen said.
This year’s market includes vendors that are spaced further apart as well as a number of features to help guide eager shoppers through as easily as possible. “There’s directional signage on the floors,” Friesen explained. “There’s reminders about distancing, to keep that two metres apart.” Organizers ask shoppers to keep several things in mind to prepare for their visit this weekend: “There’s no sampling at the market,”
