Suburban farmers markets are back. Here's what you need to know.

Face masks. One person per household. Don't handle the produce until you've paid for it. Oh, and leave the pooch at home.

These are some of the new rules farmers market shoppers will face this season due to COVID-19 precautions.

For many markets being planned throughout the suburbs, it's a transition from a community gathering space to an “in and out” market.

“We're not even going to allow dogs this year,” said Al Scott, who has run the farmers market in downtown Libertyville for the MainStreet Libertyville organization for 14 years.

The Mount Prospect Lions Club's Farmers Market, a staple of summer Sundays in the village, is scaling down its offerings, at least initially, with only food items offered.

Cash is no longer king at many markets. At the Schaumburg Farmers Market, customers are encouraged to pay with debit or credit cards.

“No change will be given for cash transactions,” according to a village news release, and “vendors will be required to sanitize their credit card processor after each transaction.”

In Buffalo Grove, restrictions include a ban on food sampling or consumption on the premises, no congregating or sitting, and no entertainment during the event.

For those who prefer not to even enter the market, Batavia's farmers market is offering preordering and curbside pickup from its vendors, and sponsor Gerald Subaru offers to deliver preorders to residents of Batavia, Geneva and North Aurora.

A few markets have chosen not to open this year at all, including the Dundee Depot Market in East Dundee and the market at St. John's Church in Naperville.

Check individual markets' websites for details before heading over; for general guidelines, visit the COVID-19 Toolkit on the Illinois Farmers Market Association's website.
