Joint November Market with City
For a third year, in a spirit of cooperation, the Bloomington Winter Farmers’ Market and Bloomington Community Farmers’ Market will co-host the November market at Switchyard Park. As in the past two years, this promises to be a unique and exciting experience where both organizations can mutually benefit as we provide our customers with an ample variety of fresh produce and other local products.

Indoor booth spaces may be smaller and will only be assigned as single booths. Outdoor single and double booth spaces will be available. Booth spaces will be $26 per day, unless you opt to be a day vendor. (See fees below.) Booth spaces will be assigned by market management with consideration for returning vendors and previous space assignments whenever possible.

Please note, being a day vendor will not automatically ensure that you will get a booth space inside the pavilion. It is highly recommended to communicate your vending plans by the Monday of the week you plan to vend.

Vendor Types
We accept the following types of vendors:

• Farmers - A farmer is defined as one who grows produce, animal products, or other agricultural products in Indiana.

• Prepared Food & Beverage - A prepared food and beverage vendor is defined as one who prepares food or beverages from scratch using ingredients that he/she has not grown or raised. This category includes Food Trucks.

• Exotic - An exotic vendor is defined as one who raises, produces, or catches food outside of Indiana.

• Other - This category of vendor is defined as one who sells soap, crafts, pet food, or other items, or provides a service, as appropriate to the mission of the market.

If you feel you fit two vendor categories, please fill out both applications or contact us with questions.
