Yoga! Join us at The Olney Farmers Market each Sunday at 10am for community yoga! This is an all levels class adaptable for every body and all levels.  We will be in front of the Thrift Shop in the wide open field.  All are welcome and class is free as sponsored by Medstar Health!  Come get your veggies, do your yoga, & see your community!
 
Please bring your own mat or beach towel.  Please be courteous and only sign up to hold the spot if you know you can be there.  Class is free but pre-registration is required.  https://upliftyoga.net/schedule/

VENDOR ALERT!   A reminder that all vendors are required to have weights of at least 25 pounds per leg, no exceptions!  In the event of strong winds, you will be asked to take down your tent.  This is for everyone’s safety.  Anyone who refuses to comply will be subject to termination.  We just can’t take any chances.  Thank you.


SNAP:  Yes, we take SNAP!  Stop by the Info tent and ask for Chris or Brooks for details.

OVERFLOW PARKING:  Please respect our neighbors across Prince Philip, in the Tall Timbers neighborhood.  Our overflow parking is just beyond the end of our large parking lot along Prince Philip, not in the Tall Timbers neighborhood. 
 
COOLING TENT:  We’ll do our best to keep you cool.  Special thanks to Red Carpet Remodeling for donating a new generator.  We also bought a new misting fan. 
Now, if we could only find a way to get a permit for an Amish Shed with heating and AC, that would be a small miracle! 
 
FOOD SCRAPS: As part of a Montgomery County-sponsored pilot, Compost Cab will accept food scraps 
from our customers. Look for their tent in the rear of the Market. You may drop off:

• Fruit and Vegetable scraps
• Cooked Food
• Meat, fish bones

PARKING IS ALWAYS FREE!   Vendors are asked to stay until 1:10pm.  There are 2 main lots, one outside the professional buildings on 108; the other opposite the Thrift Shop on Prince Philip.
NO PETS PLEASE!

DONATIONS WELCOME!   Please consider a donation to our 501-C-3, Friends of the Olney Farmers Market.  The Market provides vouchers for fresh produce to those in need.  This season, we’ve given out more vouchers than ever before. It would be great to replenish our fund.  We also need funds to support our music program and our children's tent.
Checks can be mailed to PO Box 1787, Olney, MD 20830. We also accept donations at our Info tent.  You may also use the Donate button at the top of this newsletter.
