Had a run in with government health department workers today at the farmers market.

Our booth and any other that offer samples and didn’t have a hand washing station for customers were told to tear down their stalls immediately.

Not just stop offering samples, but lose out on hundreds or thousands in sales. There is a communal hand wash station about 100’ away at the bathrooms.

I had this hand wash station set up for months and not a single person used it, so I stopped wasting my time.

It’s not about health is the bottom line.

I took about an hour to slowly break it down, selling the whole time and sold directly from the trailer w no booth til the very end.

My friends who’s farm I sell for started a tiny house on wheels farm store to sell their meat and other local farms’ products as well- 7 days a week in the middle of town.

Smart of them- 2 is 1, 1 is none especially when the govt can pull your permits if you don’t follow pointless rules, and ruin your business.

Sorry just had to vent that to a crowd that might empathize

Very fucked 🤡

Thats all govt is good for, stealing our money.

Nonsense

You can't throw a big bottle of sanitizer in front and continue on next time? Keep up the good work

I specifically asked if sanitizer would suffice and she said no 🤡
