Per the State of Ohio: "Businesses must require all employees to wear facial coverings, except for one of the following reasons: 1.) Facial coverings in the work setting are prohibited by law or regulation; 2.) Facial coverings are in violation of documented industry standards; 3.) Facial coverings are not advisable for health reasons; 4.) Facial coverings are in violation of the business's documented safety policies; e.) Facial coverings are not required when the employee works alone in an assigned work area; or 5.) There is a functional (practical) reason for an employee not to wear a facial covering in the workplace. Businesses must provide written justification, upon request, explaining why an employee is not required to wear a facial covering in the workplace. At a minimum, facial coverings (masks) should be cloth/fabric and cover an individual's nose, mouth and chin." (I have attached the page from the order.) If wearing a mask is going to be an issue for you, I will need you to submit a letter as described above so that I can have it on file. Please remember that you do not wear a mask for yourself; you wear it for the safety of those around you. If you are not wearing a mask, you MAY NOT come within six feet of another for their safety. COVID-19 can be transmitted through asymptomatic carriers ( ). If you cannot wear a mask, you may not be at the market from 5-6, during the vulnerable population hour. However, if you have preorders, they will need to be provided to the information tent by 5:00 PM. https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/26/7/20-1595_article ​ 3.) Preorders: If you have preorders and your customer would like to drive in to pick up, please have them to the information booth no later than 5:00, bagged and tagged. 4.) Social distancing guidelines: The customer viewing area must be six feet from the vendor. This can be achieved either by placing two tables together so that the combined table width is 6 feet or having a line drawn 3 feet from your table. It is understood it is not always possible to maintain the six feet when handing items to customers, but please do the best you practically can. You will be required to remind customers of social distance guidelines while in front of your booth. 5.) Signage: You will be required to have your items for sale listed on signage that can be easily seen from six feet away. You will also be required to have social distancing and no-touch signage (which will be provided to you Monday) on display at your booth. ​ 6.) No-touch: Customers are not to touch the product. Exceptions could be if they sanitize their hands first, if they wear disposable gloves provided by the vendor (which will then be discarded in a receptacle provided by the vendor), or in the instance of feeling a material, they could use a sanitized or gloved hand to feel the material on the inner part of their forearm. ​ 7.) Handling money: Cards are recommended and preferred; Please ask the customer if you can sign their name for them. Please bag the item, handle the money and then sanitize your hands. When possible, have one person handling money and another handling product. 8.) Sanitizing: You must have hand sanitizer of at least 60% alcohol available for yourself and customers at your booth. Any touch surfaces must be cleaned with a disinfectant often and, preferably, between each customer. 9.) Table coverings: You may use plastic or other cleanable table coverings. Cloth table coverings are not permitted. 10.) Items to be sold: Only whole, uncut produce may be sold. All ready-to-eat foods must be prepackaged. ​ 11.) Sampling: Samples may be given if: 1.) There is not communal sampling (i.e., a sample tray) 2.) The samples are prepackaged. 3.) The vendor dispenses the sample. For example, honey on a spoon or tea in a cup. The vendor must then provide a receptacle for garbage. ​ 12.) On-site dining: Any on-site dining areas must be sanitized between customers by the vendor providing the on-site dining. 13.) Enforcement: If the regulations are not adhered to, the vendor may be asked to leave the market and will forfeit their space and paid booth fees. ​ 14.)
