Since 2010, we have built a community of handmade and vintage vendors who share a collaborative, supportive and inclusive spirit. We love working with fellow small businesses who work hard, have fun, and who are willing to put in the time to partner with us to make the Markets a success. We especially appreciate folks who are flexible and can roll with the punches of an outdoor event (Mother Nature can be fickle). If that sounds like a good fit, we’d love to meet you!
Our Market is focused on high quality handmade products along with carefully selected antiques (100+ years old) and vintage goods (25+ years old). We're also looking for folks who have a passion for putting together creative and carefully styled displays...basically your "shop for the day". We welcome applications from emerging businesses and established brands, so even if you're new to making or collecting, please don't hesitate to apply. Our next FAQ addresses our evaluation criteria in more detail.
We consider handmade products to be those which are original in design and which require a level of skill and creativity in their final execution. We value seeing the maker's personal imprint on the final products sold versus products with minimal handiwork done on purchased components.
We do NOT accept vendors with buy/sell, directly imported goods, direct to consumer/MLM, or other commercially-made or mass-produced items including those from commercial kits. We also do not allow strictly marketing or promotional tents. From time to time we may include vendors with products which are designed locally and produced via fair trade partnership, but in that case all product design must be done locally by the vendor.
