Tacoma Farmers Market said they have recently received a directive from the Point Ruston Owners Association (PROA) to discontinue selling “Mexican-style food.” The Tacoma Farmers Market said they have responded to PROA to “negotiate a solution,” but the recent decision had an immediate effect with two vendors: El Güero and Burrito Boy. The Tacoma Farmers Market said they had no part in the directive but were compelled to comply while discussing a solution with the PROA. “We are deeply saddened by this abrupt news and apologize to the vendors and small businesses owners this affects as well as our market community that seeks out their food offerings at our Sunday Market at Point Ruston,” the Farmers Market post concluded. “We are doing our best to represent and advocate for the small businesses owners and vendors that we host at our market!” @elguero_pnw @tacomafarmersmarket #ProtectStreetVendors #MicroBusiness
