Vendor Registration

Welcome to the 2024 University Hills and Evergreen summer farmers markets. As a side note, we will likely run holiday markets as well in November and December at University Hills Plaza and other locations.

• Both markets have a blend of produce, food, drink and lifestyle vendors.
• Both locations are prime because of access, street visibility and parking.
• The markets are promoted a variety of ways because engagement is key.
• We’re a fan of all vendors and work hard to communicate and support you.
• It’s a priority to provide a positive experience for you and customers as well as the hosting venue.
• I also manage marketing for University Hills Plaza Shopping Center (home of University Hills market).

Notes:

1. Registration is $95 for 1 location or $150 for both locations.
2. It is an additional $15 per tent per date if you need more than 1 tent.
3. The fee is 10% of day-of-sales or a minimum (whichever is higher) per date per location.
4. Registration and payment must be completed online.
5. Registration does not guarantee acceptance and it’s first come-first serve.
6. Refunds are not given unless an extreme circumstance arises which we’ll discuss together.
7. If you are going to miss a scheduled date, please contact us at least 72 hours ahead of time.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

Setup and Tear Down
Setup begins approximately 2 hours before and you decide how much time you need. Unload your vehicle near the market then park away from the market. When the market is over and customers are gone, you may park closer again.

Customer parking and safety are major priorities.

Your Spot
Your assigned spot will hopefully be the same weekly (but please be flexible). Returning vendors and those committed to all dates get top priority.

Attendance
If something arises and you cannot attend as scheduled, please notify us within 72 hours of market date.

Conduct
These markets have a culture of cooperation and courtesy. Thank you for being part of this.

Tents and Trash
40lbs per tent leg is required (barbells, milk jug filled with sand, etc.). No spiking or drilling is allowed. You must remove all trash related to your tent/business.

Smoking
Smoking is prohibited.

Electricity and Safety
Electricity is generally not provided; there may be instances where it is. Noiseless generators are recommended. If cooking on-site, you must have all appropriate fire safety equipment.
