Looks like Marion of Markets may be closed for a while. See Video:

Boy, it sure looked bad on tv last night! I’m sure they don’t want people driving over there to see for themselves, but I am curious as to how much was damaged. Those poor vendors. Am hoping they take their inventory with them when it closes during the week.

I also think that if it doesn’t get back up and running, the snowbirds will really be disappointed when they get here, as am sure many go there.

Many "non snowbirds go there also". Including me, I love the place!

"Update: for all the stories going around Facebook the investigation is still ongoing but there seems to be NO suspicion of foul play. The only aisle with fire damage is C south there is some smoke damage down the main aisle. At this time no one is permitted inside the market property. We will keep you updated on what the plan is for the weekend! Thank you for all the thoughts and prayers!"

Well, yeah. Me, too!

Now we'll be stuck buying over priced vegetables in Brownwood

I really like the MOM and I hope the damage is easily repaired and the vendors can get back to their shops.

Yep, I like sunglasses alley, saves me from ordering from China 🇨🇳

You can always try the Webster market. It's only open certain days as I remember.

How does this relate to the fire at Market of Marion?

I think it sounds like he's implying that the fire might've been intentional so they could collect on insurance and develop low-income housing there? Or something in that line of thinking. Something nefarious.

Shall we thank him for the post?
