Can I do drive-thru pickup?
As of 2023, we no longer offer curbside pickup or drive-thru regularly. If pickup is a challenge due to age or disability, we are happy to accommodate these circumstances with pre-planning. We don't have drive-thru as of July 2020.
What is the market doing to increase safety?
Farmers markets are deemed essential, however to do our part in stopping the spread of infectious disease, the Rail Yards Market is operating a pre-order & pick-up market operation plan until further notice.
- Enacting all CDC guidelines for Food businesses.
- Enforcing all State requirements for Farmers Markets as Essential Businesses.
- See our full COVID-19 Safety Policy here.
- Increased physical distancing, sanitation, personal protection, and training are all in effect for staff and vendors.
- All food products are prepared in a commercial commissary before delivery.
- Produce is pre-washed, but we ALWAYS recommend for you to wash your produce before eating.

refund policy?
We recognize mistakes happen and are happy to help. We thank everyone for their understanding and patience with our new operations. Vendors work hard to grow, make, and harvest your items locally. Our staff works to procure your order and verify it is correct.
- All sales are final.
- Missing items: Please check your order immediately upon pickup; if an item is missing email railyardsmarket@gmail.com to resolve by 2pm on Sunday. Depending on the items, we can work to get you the missing items.
- Returns/Refunds: For safety reasons, we do not accept returns or exchanged food at this time.
- Forgotten Orders: Orders that are not picked up by 12pm on Sunday will be donated, without refund to customer.
How can snap customers shop?
To reserve an order online with EBT/SNAP, WIC/Senior voucher checks, or Fresh Rx, simply select the EBT payment option when confirming your order. All grocery items are eligible to purchase with your SNAP card. All local fruits & veggies are eligible for Double Up Foods Bucks- a buy-one-get-one free program that matches your SNAP dollars for fresh & local produce.
Why doesN't the market charge a pickup fee?
If you can donate extra on your purchase, we sincerely appreciate it.Food access is important to us, and we realize a pickup fee is not accessible to everyone. We gratefully accept donations (called tips in the current online system) to help out with our non-profit operation during check-out online. Donations help us pay for the software costs, safety equipment, processing/bank fees, supplies, boxes, food storage like ice/freezers/refrigeration, packaging, PPE, infrastructure (like tents, barricades, and signs), and staff needed to run the market and pickup operation. Our savings, vendor fees, and some municipal/federal grants are helping fund the rest of this program. Every little bit helps!
