2023 Mars Hill Farmers and Artisans Market Vendor Application
The Mars Hill Farmers and Artisans Market is operated by and for its Vendors, who are original producers of items being sold. It is designed to support local, small-scale farmers and artisans (food and crafts) by providing an additional marketing opportunity for their produce and products. In addition, the mission of the market is to provide the community a source of fresh, high-quality products, and be a part of the community it serves.

Vendors must be pre-approved for admission into the market. The vendor must be the producer, family member, intern, or employee involved in the production of the items sold.

The Regular Season Market opens for the season on April 1, 2023. Markets are held outdoors every Saturday from 10am to 1pm until October 28, 2023.  Vendors must be present during entire market hours. If accepted into the market, full time vendor dues are tiered $200-$300 per year and payable to the market treasurer upon acceptance. Fees are not refundable. Day vendor fee is $20/day due at beginning of each market.
Day Vendor approval emails will go out March 1, 2023 but we will continue to take application all year.

We are not planning a Holiday Markets for 2023.

NO PRODUCE OR OTHER END PRODUCTS OF ANY KIND MAY BE PURCHASED BY VENDORS FROM ANOTHER SOURCE FOR RESALE AT THE MARKET (with the exception of seafood).

Vending entitles a vendor to one selling site (10' x 10') at the market. Vending benefits include free market advertising, and full-time vendors have priority placement over day vendors. Also, Market Bucks are available for customers to purchase with a debit/credit card that can be spent with any vendor.

No vehicles are allowed to be operated in the market aisles during the market or within 15 minutes of the start and end time. The Board of Directors may remove member status for repeated tardiness or early departure after two warnings by the Market Director.

CANOPY: Canopy weights are required by law. Other markets report flying tents as the most common source of insurance claims against market organizations. The MHFAM site is very windy on some occasions. Legs or supports of tents, canopies, or other structures that may be moved by wind gusts must be tied to weights of at least 25 pounds per leg of the structure (gallon water jugs do not hold a tent down in high winds).
