Brick officials announced Tuesday that the township’s Farmers’ Market would open May 16, but with strict rules in place for both vendors and customers to prevent the spread of coronavirus.

“We are excited to announce that the Farmers’ Market will be open to give our residents the opportunity to purchase fresh produce and other items from local businesses,” said Mayor John Ducey. “Much like other many others aspects of daily life, we had to adapt the Farmers’ Market to make it as safe as possible. But having the market open will provide some sense of progress and normalcy which is a positive thing right now.”



The Brick Farmers’ Market will be open from 9 a.m. until 2 p.m. every Saturday from May 16 to Sept. 19 at Windward Beach Park. Until further notice, the following rules are in place for the Farmers’ Market and will be strictly adhered to:
