The Olney Market is considered an essential service, under the Governor's orders. All customers and vendors are REQUIRED TO WEAR MASKS, and we'll provide gloves and sanitizing stations.
******************************************************
The Governor of Maryland, in his executive order issued in April 2020 (and not yet withdrawn), stated that face masks are required for all patrons over the age of nine years at retail establishments. The order defines “Retail Establishments” as retail businesses, organizations, establishments, and facilities in the State of Maryland, including without limitation:
i. Grocery stores, convenience stores, farmer’s markets, and any other establishment engaged in the retail sale of non-prepared food;
See https://governor.maryland.gov/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Masks-and-Physical-Distancing-4.15.20.pdf for details.
Under a new directive issued by Montgomery County Health Officer Travis Gayles June 18, 2020, residents must wear face coverings whenever they are in public ... Exceptions are children two years or younger and people with health conditions that make breathing difficult. This directive is in addition to the Maryland state order issued in April 2020. See ABOVE for link to that order.
