SCHUYLKILL COUNTY, Pa. — The Hometown Farmers Market near Tamaqua will close for the next two weeks.
It was on the list of essential businesses that could stay open but the owner says she decided to shut down for safety reasons.
"We're open 70 years this August. This is the first time ever the Market has experienced such chaos in the world that we've had to consider closing for non-weather related instances," says owner Susan Bebiege.
The Hometown Farmers Market is open Wednesdays year-round. The owner says a few vendors will be outside March 25.
The market will then close for the following two weeks in Schuylkill county.
