The ASAP Farmers Market is designed to protect shoppers and vendors by maintaining social distances and mitigating potential virus transmission points.
Location
As of July 4 the market location has changed.
The market is located in A-B Tech parking lot A-13, adjacent to the A-B Tech/Mission Health Conference Center (16 Fernihurst Dr.). Enter the market via Fernihurst Dr. off Victoria Rd., following campus signs to the conference center.
Market staff will control the number of shoppers in the market area at one time. Please follow signs and staff directions to queue inside your vehicle until instructed to park and move into the market.
