on Thursdays from 4 pm -7 pm.

All attendees will be required to follow the below rules:
RFM Customer Guidelines
Do not attend the Market if you are sick or at risk. When in doubt, err on the side of caution. Consider asking a friend or family member to pick up your market items for you.
If possible, only one person from each household should attend the market.
Leave all pets at home.
A handwashing station will be provided at the market. Wash your hands for 20 seconds upon arrival at the market and frequently as you move throughout the market.
Vendors and customers must maintain physical distance of at least six feet at all times.
Shop with a purpose and do not linger.
Do not congregate or socialize at the market and please keep a respectful distance from others.
To expedite your shopping, consider making a grocery list and/or make preorders through RFM’s online market https://www.localline.ca/ronan-farmers-market.
We are allowing more space between each vendor’s booth. These are not walkways, but distancing measures, so please avoid walking between the booths.
There will be no onsite food consumption. All prepared foods will be packaged to-go with the expectation that the food will be consumed offsite.
Please be patient. Vendors will help only one customer at a time.
Do not touch any items on vendors’ tables. Describe what you want and point to it. Vendors will bag your items.

We offer produce, crafts, jams and jellies, baked goods, jewelry, flowers and other items. All the produce at the market comes from within Orchard Homes and travels less than a mile to get to market! Now, THAT is fresh!

If you want to get to know your farmer, this is a great market to do that! There is a great community between all the vendors and we LOVE our customers.
