Please submit this form to apply for the Backyard Growers Program. The Harbor Springs Farmers Market will be in contact with you.
The Harbor Springs Farmers Market is dedicated to supporting local growers! If you have a home garden, we would love to have you as a guest vendor. Whether it be a surplus of one crop, or a variety of fresh produce, there is room for everyone. Getting started as a vendor can be a little challenging, so we are here to help. Backyard Growers will be provided a tent, table, empty cash box, and simple display equipment free of charge. If interested, your participation can be promoted on our social media pages and weekly newspaper article.
The first visit to the market will be completely FREE! Any future visits there will be a $20 fee if you are borrowing our tent and table. Backyard Growers must grow all their own produce, reselling is not allowed at our market. This program is not for established farmers, or any prepared food producers or crafters. Strictly fresh produce growers are eligible.
We understand that exact dates will be difficult to determine ahead of time and will do our best to have availability all summer long. Acceptance is not guaranteed, so please submit the application as early as possible. That way we can gauge interest and plan equipment availability accordingly.
