The Yard Market

The Yard Market is looking to showcase a curated selection of products from local artists, makers, growers, and entrepreneurs.

We DO NOT accept applications from supplement or vitamin sellers; CBD, Kava or Kratom sellers; or sellers of mass-produced products, multi-level marketers, or direct sales products.

The Yard Market does not allow multiple businesses to vend from the same booth. Each application must contain only one independent business. 

We are not a “flea market” or a place for ordinary resale of wholesale products or independent consultants/distributors or marketing of service businesses looking for a place to advertise or collect new clients.

Fill out The Yard Market Vendor Application HERE.

The Yard Market Committee will evaluate all applications.  All invitations to sell at the market are at the discretion of the committee. Submitting an application does not guarantee admittance into the market, nor does it guarantee that an existing vendor will continue to have space.   Please be patient as we receive a high volume of applications. You will receive an email after your application has been reviewed letting you know the status of your application (declined/screening opportunity awarded).

We strive to create a specific aesthetic and ambiance within our selection. If you are not chosen, please know that it is not a reflection of your worth or talent; these decisions are often the most challenging for us.

It’s important to note that some categories tend to be more competitive than others. Our goal is to curate each market with a diverse range of goods, ensuring that we maintain a balanced selection without an excess of similar items.
