Nonprofit Organization Information and Guidelines
We are pleased to welcome nonprofit organizations to our vendor mix at the Downtown Farmers Market. If you are able to demonstrate your 501(c)3 status, we would love to have you be a part of our program. Please note the following guidelines:
- Nonprofit organizations may attend up to four Market days throughout the season. Please indicate your preferred dates on the application. If you are not able to attend one of the reserved dates, please contact the Market Manager as soon as possible so that another organization will be able to attend.
- Five nonprofit organizations will be invited to participate each week. Dates are reserved on a first come, first served basis.
- An allotment of nonprofit booth space is reserved on the east side of the park. Please check in each week at the Downtown Alliance booth, located on the North row, to determine your specific spot.
- Spaces are 10’ x 10’. If you require more space, please contact the market manager before the scheduled date to discuss your plan.
- We do not provide equipment. Bring all necessary materials, including a table and canopy. A canopy is not required but if you choose to bring one, each corner needs to be secured with at least a 40 lb. weight.
