The Park City Farmers Market will open two weeks early on Wednesday at the Silver King parking lot. Founder and organizer Volker Ritzinger says the reason for the early opening is to help non-food vendors that weren’t able to join the market last year due to COVID-19 concerns.

Last year’s Park City Farmers Market opened two weeks late, so organizer and founder Volker Ritzinger found a way to balance things out: He plans to start the event two weeks early this year.
“Some of the non-food vendors the ones who sell clothing and jewelry that we didn’t accept last year weren’t able to make any money because of the pandemic,” Ritzinger said. “So, I told them that we will open early this year so they can get a jump on things.”
