agriculture, the City of West Palm Beach GreenMarket
is a time-honored tradition that truly unites our city,”
said West Palm Beach Mayor Keith A. James. “Given
the challenges faced this year due to COVID-19, this
season’s GreenMarket will be particularly meaningful. In
many ways, it will be the first time we can connect again
as a community, of course, with extra safety measures in
place. I look forward to the start of GreenMarket again,
and I tip my cap to the city’s Community Events Division
and the vendors who are working hard to produce what
I expect will be another terrific GreenMarket season.”
There will be several initial changes this year for the
safety of GreenMarket customers, vendors, and staff,
who are expected to comply with the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC), Florida Department
of Health, State of Florida, and Palm Beach County
COVID recommendations and directives. Included in
the changes are the suspension of activities for kids,
additional café seating, live music, food samples, and
bottomless mimosas. Single mimosas will be available
for purchase for $4 at the entrance. Merchant tents will be
placed 10 feet apart. Attendees must wear masks to enter,
will need to follow a path, and are encouraged to shop
quickly. Hand sanitizing and hand washing stations will
