There’s a lot of similar stupidity going on in my state re the virus. While big box hardware stores are open to the public, some items are off limits for purchase like planting material and plants. Also power boating has just been put off limits and landscaping firms are not allowed to operate ie, grass cutting outfits are prevented from cutting grass. The craziness continues.
