Reclassify Virginia Farmers Markets as Essential Grocery Stores

Farmers Markets in Virginia are currently not listed as "Essential Businesses." They are classified instead as restaurants, which are only currently open for takeout and delivery. As a result, many Virginia Farmers Markets have closed due to the restrictions. We need Virginia Farmers Markets to be classified as Grocery Stores and thus "Essential." #farmersmarketsaregrocerystores
