As customers anxiously await their favorite summer produce, local farmers like Julie Mallow, owner of The Vegetable Garden, have been preparing all year.
âI want people to understand that it takes a lot,â Mallow said. âThereâs a lot that goes into what we do and how we grow things. to give them the best product available.â
Last April, amid the COVID-19 pandemic, the Morgantown Farmers Market closed indefinitely. By summer it had adopted a contactless drive-thru system where customers could order online in advance. This year, however, the market is set to return to full capacity at the Morgantown Market Place Pavilion, located at 400 Spruce St.
