1. Do I Qualify?

All prepared food, both prepackaged and hot food ready for on site consumption, must be produced by the purveyor in a certified comissary Kitchen, hold all needed permits and comply with all Food Handeling and Fire safety protocols. All prepared food is subject to a tasting to assure product quality and appeal. WE DO NOT ACCEPT UNSOLICITED SAMPLES.

  • Vehicle Vending Permit from Health Department of County selling in.

Attendance:

If accepted into a market, Hot Food Vendors are expected to be open for business every week, rain or shine, unless an alternate schedule has been pre-approved in writing. 4 annual absences from the market are permitted for wellness, illness, or emergencies reasons without charge.

Staffing:

If you plan to send an employee to sell your product, it is mandatory that you provide them with training of all market rules and thorough food handling safety and materials. It is also very important that your employee has in depth understanding of your product ingredients, sourcing, and process. Being able to answer detailed customer questions is at the essence of the Farmers' Market experience.
