Hampton Farmer’s Market given green light to begin May 19

The Hampton Farmer’s Market has been given the green light to open later this month.

In the first phase to reopen Iowa introduced last Monday, Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds announced that farmers markets would be among the services allowed to begin operation on May 1. Barb Ristau, Hampton Farmers Market Board Member, said, therefore, the market will host its first installment on Tuesday, May 19. The market will then run every Tuesday and Friday from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. until October. All markets will be held in the lot east of Hardee’s on Highway 3.
