The Milton Farmers Market finally got its start May 29 after stormy weather forced postponement of opening day. The parking lot at Dogfish Head Brewery was the loop for customers who lined up with 6-foot distancing to take advantage of fresh vegetables and food the market offered.
Dogfish Head hand sanitizer was offered at the entrance and at various stations. Volunteers counted entrants in the one-way market, and as one left another was admitted. Vendors kept the no-contact rule by clearly labeling and displaying products and sanitizing after each customer.
