______________________________________________________________
Set up time is 8-9 AM. Booth space is 12 X 12 feet per registrant and will be assigned by the Market Manager. A donation of $10.00 each week, payable in advance, is requested to help defray costs. Pre Payment of $100.00 for the season (11 weeks for the price of 10) will reserve a permanent spot. Each vendor is responsible for set up and take down; for supplying all tents, umbrellas, tables, and chairs; and for clean up of the space. Be aware that there is a sprinkler system in the lawn. Do not stake.
Trucks and cars must be moved to any of the 100+ free parking spaces in the town lot just across the railroad tracks. We must save street parking for our customers.
Please do not park in the lot on the north side of Hall Ave. That lot belongs to the barber shop and cannot be used by our vendors. The town parking lot across the tracks is open to everyone.

Acceptable sale items include vegetables, fruit, plant material, plant-based craft items, and gardening-related crafts and supplies. Food items must have been prepared in a licensed kitchen. Crafters, please send photos of your work. The Gardeners Market Committee reserves the right to accept or refuse any items which are not included on this list. In the event that there is a lack of available space, preference will be given to those selling fresh produce, plant materials, and food items.
