WHAT IS THE CRITERIA FOR VENDORS?
Applicants must be the designers, creators, and producers of their work.
Eligible products include handcrafted, artisanal items created from an original recipe (food and drink), sewn, constructed, sculpted, combined, or fashioned from component materials, and/or altered in a significant way that makes them unique.
No kit crafts, imported crafts, or items crafted by someone other than the applicant will be accepted—no direct sales vendors.
If sharing a booth, each applicant must submit an Exhibit Form and will be juried as an individual (information for each artisan must be included on the Application Form).
Application packages, including physical samples, photos, product packaging, and booth display examples, will be juried for quality, durability, originality, and professional presentation.
If you are selling food products, including those deemed “low risk,” you must provide a copy of current FoodSafe certificates, license/approval from provincial health authorities, and temporary food premises documentation at least one month prior to the market.
If you are selling and sampling wine/beer/cider/spirits, you must provide a copy of liquor board approval and Serving It Right certificates for all booth staff.
