This farmer's market in Queens, NY remained opened, but instituted several measures to comply with social distancing including:
Preventing customers from handling produce
Chalking the sidewalk to keep customers in line six feet apart
Many of the vendors were wearing gloves and/or masks
Food scraps were no longer being collected
Local grocery stores, however, were not instituting these kinds of policies. Aside from changing hours, providing (I assume) employees with gloves and masks, and, in some cases, providing an hour during the early morning for elderly shoppers, the practice of shopping saw little change (except, of course, for shelves that were more bare than usual).
