Because of the pandemic, the country market also has several guidelines to which all visitors are asked to adhere. You must wear a face covering or a face mask, maintain a social distance of six feet from other shoppers, and use hand sanitizer.

You can wash your hands at “hand washing” stations, and vendors prefer guests pay by card, although you can still use cash.
