Berlin Farmers Market To Return Next Weekend

BERLIN – The town will welcome the return of the Berlin Farmers Market the first week of May.

As closures and cancellations related to COVID-19 continue to pile up, Berlin officials are pleased that at least one local event will go on. Farmers markets have been permitted to remain open as essential businesses during the ongoing health crisis.

“It’s now more important than ever to show your support for our local farmers,” said Ivy Wells, the town’s economic and community development director.

The Berlin Farmers Market kicks off its 2020 season May 3 and will take place every Sunday from 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Pitts Street. The first 30 minutes of the market, from 8:30-9 a.m., are designated for senior shoppers only.

The new addition to this market will be free Bat Soup, deep fried spiders and Dog Kabobs. Just like the Famous Wet Markets in China! You too can experience the sight, sounds, and smells of back ally China!


Why not? Opening up anything this soon is stupid just like above.

Farmers using bird poop as fertilizer have been linked to a rise in Bird Flu, this is not the time to have another Pandemic.

That's a lie and you know it 5:54, chicken manure has been used as fertilizer for decades, totally unrelated to bird flu. Go back to your safe space for 6 months, maybe everything will be pure enough by then for you to stay health.
