Farmers in the Park canceled Wednesday, September 23 due to anticipated conditions
CHARLOTTESVILLE, VA – Charlottesville Parks & Recreation announces the cancellation of Farmers in the Park scheduled for Wednesday, September 23, at Pen Park due to ongoing rainfall expected from Monday evening through Thursday.
The anticipated accumulation of rain is expected to result in saturated and muddy park grounds, creating challenging conditions for vendor setup, customer access, and safe operation of the market. Out of consideration for the safety of our vendors, customers, and staff, the market will not take place this Wednesday. Customers who have purchased CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) shares should contact their CSA provider directly for information about alternate pickup arrangements.
We appreciate everyone's understanding as we prioritize safety and protect the condition of Pen Park. We look forward to welcoming the community back to Farmers in the Park on Wednesday, September 30, from 3:00 to 7:00 PM, featuring seasonal produce, local meats, baked goods, and prepared foods from local vendors.
Farmers in the Park proudly partners with Virginia Fresh Match, which doubles the value of SNAP purchases at farmers markets, supporting local farmers and strengthening rural economies.
