Local Food Market seeking vendors



Are you interested in selling at the Local Food Market this summer? We’d love to have you join us!

Here are some questions for you to think about:

How many weeks from June – October do you estimate that you would attend? How many weeks out of 18?

The market is generally open somewhere in the range of 4:30 – 6:30 p.m. on Thursdays. How does this timeframe work for you?

What would you be selling? (fresh fruit and vegetables, meat, fish, eggs, dairy, honey, jams, jellies, pickles, baked goods, and seeds and plants that produce food)

Can you reliably arrive to set up at least 15 minutes before start time?

Will you be able to provide weekly email or phone updates of your best guess about items you’ll have for sale that week? We need this to create effective advertising to increase attendance (and sales).

If this sounds like your cup of tea (or bushel of beans, or carton of eggs…) contact: Diane at Diane.Booth@ co.cook.mn.us, 387-3015; or Hartley at hartley@sawtoothmountainclinic.org, 387-2330 for more information.

We need at least 10 vendors for the market to be viable. The deadline to register is March 22.
