In a webinar from the Farmers Market Legal Toolkit (FMLT), CAFS hosted Brett Stokes, Director of the Center for Justice Reform at VLGS, for a practical discussion on how farmers market vendors and managers can navigate interactions with law enforcement. This webinar covered situations when vendors are required to comply with officers, the specific obligations of market managers, the difference between public and private space at farmers markets, and how rules and regulations might change depending on a market’s location.
