The first step is to review our rules and resources and then submit our New Vendor form. All new vendors are reviewed by our board of directors for approval, ensuring that your business aligns with market rules and regulations.

The best way to see what is available on a specific day is to visit the market! A typical market day has 30-40 vendors selling vegetables, fruits, flowers, eggs, meats, cheese, baked goods, canned goods, jellies/jams and handmade/handcrafted items. The vegetables, fruits and flowers are all locally grown, so availability varies widely throughout the season and is based on weather conditions.

We enjoy having our furry friends visit us at the market. To ensure the comfort and safety for everyone on market days: - Pets must be kept on a short, non-expandable leash and be kept under control by their handler's side at all times - Pets need to be kept away from all produce, plants, and other food products - baked goods and ready to eat foods are especially tempting, but it's critical that all non-humans stay way from the food items at the market. This means both the head and tail ends! - If your pet touches any food items or ruins any non-food items that you personally have not purchased, you will be expected to purchase it from the vendor or reimburse the customer if they have already purchased the item. - Owners must come prepared to clean up after their pets! - Not everyone is a pet lover: Be considerate. If a pet is not behaving in accordance with these rules, the market staff or volunteers will ask the owner to remove it from under the pavilion or from the park entirely.

The market is open rain or shine. If a severe storm occurs during the market, vendors and customers are directed to use the bathrooms located in the band shell. For winter markets, as long as the Raw Deal is open to the public, the markets will be held as scheduled.
