Do I have to weigh my produce?
No. Produce may be pre-bundled, pre-packaged, or sold by count at the vendor's discretion. However, if produce is sold by weight at the market, it must be weighed using a certified scale that has been inspected and approved during our annual vendor meeting. This helps ensure accurate measurements and a fair experience for both vendors and customers.
