Grove Park Trees Shut Down Market | Dover News

Soil compaction from decades of foot and vehicle traffic has weakened the trees, prompting officials to launch a detailed Level Two assessment. The market, which began 20 years ago and drew thousands weekly, is now relocating to a parking lot — a far cry from the park’s charm — as vendors mourn the loss of community connection amid tough farming conditions.
