When I spoke to the manager, Jerry Underwood, he never stated that he was personal friends with the health inspector from Marion County. He stated he was personal friends with the health inspector from Wildwood. I was wrong in my assumption that the farmers Market fell under the Marion County's health codes. Hence, the mea culpa. The Brownswood Farmer's Market falls under the jurisdiction of the Sumter County health inspector.
What everyone fails to understand is that there are basic health codes that are law and must be abided by everyone and are being overlooked by a few select individuals. A farmers market is no exception. We are not talking restauraunt codes, but basic sanitary codes. The fact that you may not feel the need for them is not germane. Should it be optional for a restauranut worker or health care provider wash their hands after going to the restroom? There are codes for a reason.
However, if you wish to support a venue that is not looking after your health and well being by following health codes mandated by law, then more power to you.
