Vendor Information and Criteria

Our markets are curated events, which means vendor participation is based on a selection process — not first come, first served. We love supporting small businesses, but due to limited space and our goal to create a balanced, high-quality experience, spots are not guaranteed for every applicant.

How Vendors Are Selected

We review each application carefully to build a well-rounded lineup that represents our community and creates the best possible shopping experience.
Selection is based on:

• Product fit – Handmade, homemade, homegrown, or wellness-based products are our focus.
• Quality & presentation – Clear branding, professional setup, and attention to detail matter.
• Category balance – We limit the number of vendors per category (candles, jewelry, baked goods, etc.) to ensure everyone has the chance to succeed.
• Local connection – We prioritize local and small businesses that create or produce their own products.
• Reliability & communication – Vendors who are responsive, punctual, and easy to work with are always valued.

Please Note

• Applying does not guarantee acceptance.
  Each market has limited space, and we often receive more applications than we can accommodate.
• Returning vendors are not automatically approved — each market is curated individually to maintain variety.
• Waitlists are used when categories fill up early.
• Commercial, MLM, or resale vendors may not be a fit for every event unless specifically noted.

Our Goal

We want every vendor and customer to have a great experience. By curating each market, we’re able to support our makers and keep our markets fresh, exciting, and well-attended.

Vendor Responsibilities

Each vendor is responsible for providing their own complete setup for the market. To ensure a professional and consistent experience for customers, please come prepared with everything you need for your space.

What Vendors Should Bring

• Tent or canopy (typically 10×10 unless otherwise noted)
• Tent weights – Required for safety at all outdoor events.
• Tables and/or display fixtures

• Chairs or stools (if desired)
• Signage – Your business name and clear pricing
• Lighting – For evening or indoor events (battery-powered if no electricity)
• Payment options – Cash box, card reader, QR code, or mobile payment apps
• Product packaging or bags for customer purchases

Setup & Breakdown

• Vendors are responsible for arriving on time, completing setup within the assigned window, and remaining for the full duration of the event.
• Each vendor is responsible for keeping their area clean during and after the market.
• No early breakdowns unless approved by the event coordinator. Early breakdowns without communication may result in loss of eligibility for future participation in our markets.
