Procedure for vendor applications for 2024 market.

Beginning in 2022 we switched to an invitation format for sign up. We’ve had an overwhelming response with applications over the years and while that’s a great problem to have, it creates a lot of extra paperwork and e-mail volume for this volunteer staff of 2. In early January we send out the invites and based on the response, we fill in the market with additional vendors as the slots in their area of creativity become available.

If you are not a vendor currently but are interested in joining the Artisan Market at Parmelee Farm, please e-mail photos of your work – (you must make what you sell) – and your contact information to [email protected]. We will keep it on file in the event a space becomes available. There is a wait list but the availability depends on how many we have in a particular area of artistry, different styles, etc. We try to help each vendor have a fair shot at profitability and it’s also a goal to keep the market fresh for patrons.

THANK YOU for your interest in our market!
