The low down...
This is a juried market. Meaning vendors are hand picked based on photos and description. Awesome photos of your products and set up are SUPER important:) If you are a new business, don't be discouraged. We LOVE introducing fresh talent to the scene.
Our focus is primarily on vintage/re-purposed, and handmade artisan goods. We know some of you have shops or mobile boutiques selling "new/market" items. Our goal is to find those that bring this option to our shoppers in a unique and beautiful way that flows with the vibe of our show. Just know our market is about 80% handmade/vintage and 20% "new/market items"
So...bring your "A" game...awesome displays, killer products, you get the idea:)

 Our vendor selection is very well thought out. It is important to us to keep a good variety of items for our shoppers. We try hard not to overlap in too many categories. We receive an overwhelming amount of applications and unfortunately we cannot except everyone. We do keep a waiting list and work our way down the line as vendors cancel. 

Also, we are required by the State of Iowa to have an Iowa Sales Tax ID Number for all vendors. If you do not have an Iowa Sales Tax ID Number or proof of registration we can't let you sell.  If you don't have one you can still fill out your application but you will need to send your Tax ID number to us before the market.

INSURANCE- We highly recommend having your own vendor general liability insurance. You can obtain this through most insurance companies. It's available for just single events or a yearly policy.

APPLICATION DEADLINE IS JANUARY 5!!!
We will begin our selections once applications are closed. You will be emailed if you've been accepted within 2 weeks. Once accepted, you will receive an invoice via email, PAYMENT IS DUE WITHIN 10 BUSINESS DAYS otherwise you forfeit your spot. We will bill for spring and fall market separately.

 **Rain or shine the show must go on.

**Booth fees are non-refundable for any reason. Your booth fee must be paid within 10 days of receiving your invoice. If it is not, we assume you forfeit your space and we will offer it to the next person on the list.

Booth options---
**Inside- Here's the deal, all booths inside the barn are approximately  13  x 13.  Since the barn spots are pretty popular, we are only allowing 1 booth space per vendor inside the barn. Barn spaces are VERY, VERY limited but we will try our best to give everyone their first choice. Metal Building spaces are 12 x 12 and are also very limited.

**Outside- All outdoor booths are 12 x 12. All on grass. All flat ground so don't worry about hauling things up and down hills:) Tents are not required but encouraged. TENTS MUST BE WHITE.  We want to create an amazing "boutique" shopping experience. Please make sure your tent is weighted and staked down. We would hate for your tent to blow in to your neighbors.  So be a good neighbor:)

**Please come prepared to set up in the booth space you have paid for. Out of fairness to those who adhere to the boundaries, you will be expected to pay for any overage prior to completing setup.

**SET UP DETAILS- set up is Thursday from 9-6 and Friday from 8-2. All vehicles must be off the grounds by 1:30 no exceptions. We will send out an email with more details as the market gets closer.

**MOBILES -if you have a mobile shop you MUST SET UP ON THURSDAY so plan accordingly. It's a challenge for us to get mobiles into their spots once everyone else is in place. Mobile pricing is calculated from your entire shopping footprint not only your trailer.

**FOOD VENDORS- you can set up on Friday. You must be in your spot 2 by 1:00 on Friday.

We encourage you to print this for your records.
