2023 ART / WELLNESS & FOOD VENDOR APPLICATION - CLOSED 

Our application for the 2024 season will open at the end of each year around September.
If you are interested in other markets check out this list of growers' markets here.

All of our arts, wellness, hot food, and fresh prepared food vendors go through a jury process which helps decides who will vend at the market. Because of this process we do not (yet) have the ability accept year-round applications for these categories.
