Westfield Farmers Market & Quimby St Open for Business This Weekend

June 19, 2020 by Scott Gleason

After months of operating under a stay-at-home order, Governor Murphy has begun to allow New Jersey businesses to open back up. To reduce the potential for a second outbreak of COVID-19, the governor decided to approach reopening in phases. Currently, he allows restaurants to offer outdoor dining as an option. This helps them continue to operate while allowing for social distancing. Also, customers of our Westfield farmers market can now go booth-to-booth to visit vendors.

Westfield Farmers Market and Quimby St Open for business downtown this weekend. The farmers market allows in-person shopping as well as curbside pickup. Quimby St closes to automotive traffic all weekend long.

Westfield Farmers Market

Then, they picked up their purchases at the Westfield Train Station during normal farmers market hours. To keep things as safe as possible, market staff placed purchases in customers’ cars. This allowed for a completely touch-free exchange. Customers got the fresh meat and produce they desired and businesses continued to operate even during a pandemic. Everybody won.

Beginning June 20th, the market opens its “doors” to allow in-person shopping again. Organizers strongly encourage customers to continue to observe social distancing practices (six feet between you and anyone you don’t live with). If you feel unwell at all, please stay home…for your safety as well as others. They require you to wear a face voering while walking around the market. Expect lines as vendors assist customers one at a time. Instead of picking things up and examining them yourself, ask the vendor to handle the products you’re interested in to reduce potential cross-contamination.

Feeling a little apprehensive about diving right back into a crowd? The market still offers curbside service. Go ahead and place your order online and then pick it up during regular farmers market hours.

Quimby St Events

Just last week, I was talking about how the Downtown Westfield Corporation was going to shut down Quimby St to automotive traffic so that restaurants and businesses could spread out onto the street in an effort to provide enough room for social distancing. Well, this is the first weekend that happens. On Saturday morning, expect to see yoga classes and a CrossFit class taking place right out on Quimby St. Just Bead Yourself hosts a bracelet-making class on the street from 1 pm to 3 pm. In the evening, enjoy a live concert performed by the NJ Workshop for the Arts.

Satsang offers a yoga class on Sunday morning from 10 am to 11 am. (Bring your own mat.) And Kika Stretch Studios hosts a stretching class at noon. Each weekend provides a new experience on Quimby. You’ll need to come to Downtown Westfield for yourself to see what that weekend’s adventure entails.

For the 10 days of the Dine Out Westfield Winter 2017 event, local area restaurants create unique prix fixe menus for patrons to try.  This year, the Downtown Westfield Corporation added something new: food and wine pairings.  Local wineries partnered up with some of our Westfield restaurants to bring you a one-of-a-kind experience.  The Liquor Basket offers pre-selected wine recommendations, with a 10% discount on select wines.  NasVino takes it a step further.  Order a bottle ahead of time and have it delivered to you at the restaurant.  They take personal service to a whole new level.

Some participating restaurants in the Dine Out Westfield Winter 2017 event require reservations.  Talk to the manager of the restaurant you are interested in to find out if this is the case there.  Exclusive food and wine pairing menus will not be available on Friday and Saturday.  These tend to be the busiest times for our Westfield restaurants.  However, any other day of the week will be just as good.  Besides, date night doesn’t have to be a strictly weekend affair.  Taxes and gratuity are extra.  Make sure to tip your wait staff for a job well done.

A Quick Reminder

If you haven’t already done so, please sign up for the free Westfield Tax Appeal Seminar I am sponsoring.  It is scheduled for February 28th at the Westfield Area Y.  Tax appeal lawyer Jennifer Jacobus, Esq. shows you how to properly file an appeal on your Westfield property taxes if you believe your home valuation is incorrect.  Call (908) 518-5456 to leave a voicemail.  Or, send an email to reserve your spot.  Seats are limited.
