- A 10x10 canopy is required for all Outdoor Vendors, and must be brought and set up by vendor. 40lb+ weights required per canopy leg (that's 160+lb in total, per canopy). 10x20 double spaces may bring (1) 10x10, (2) 10x10's, or (1) 10x20 for their space. No canopies indoors. Canopy covers may be required to come down (frames may remain) if excess of 25mph wind gusts are forecasted.

- DO NOT PARK IN CUSTOMER LOT. Prepare to stay for the duration of the market in our closed vendor lot.
NOTE: $25 fine imposed for non-compliance of policies listed (ie. packing up early, not cleaning space, etc). Due to safety issues...for insufficient canopy weights, vendors may be removed from the market without refund.
Payment is required in advance to hold your space. We often sell out within the first few days of opening registration, so please register early. Spaces are first come, first serve, with the first 48 hours after each market accepting reservations for current vendors to register, only. Spaces are NOT saved without payment! Indoor spaces reserved for current indoor vendors to book before we allow outdoor vendors to move indoors.
We accept payment at each market for our NEXT market in cash/check at our Info Booth. Online registration opens each market day for the following market on THIS page online for current vendors present at that day's market only. 3 days after that for prior vendors, and APPROVED new vendor applications only.

Unless we refund you due to an issue adding you to the market, there are NO REFUNDS OR CREDITS towards future markets on market fees. There are no make-up days. We operate regardless of weather and Manager has the right to require that canopies come down in high winds or cancel a market and reschedule in very extreme circumstances.

If you would like to be a sponsor for a future market and have your business featured for supporting the community, we would be happy to hear from you! Our Facebook page reaches over 40k viewers monthly, not including our website, Instagram, etc. so this is a great opportunity for exposure and promotion for any local business!
Please email kim@gardenridgemarket.com and we can send you more info on being a sponsor for an upcoming market or activity! Thank you!
When registering, you'll have the option to participate in our Scavenger Hunt Activity (unless sold out)!
For this activity, we give participating booths a "Character" sheet matching the market theme to post on your canopy, facing customers. Kids at the market are given stamp cards to visit participating vendors & have their cards stamped. After enough stamps, kids return to the Info Booth where they receive a prize or goodie bag for completing the Hunt. This gives kids a free, fun activity to enjoy & your booth additional exposure to potential customers! Especially recommended for kid-friendly product vendors. Win-win!
Please do not include any politically sensitive items in your lineup, and keep in mind we operate on a church campus for any products you have. Anything regarding drugs, violence, unapproved weapons, politics or sexual in nature is also not allowed. CBD products are not allowed. Tarot cards, ouija boards, and depictions of those or similar products to those are not allowed. Alcohol or medicinal sales, display or consumption on property is NOT allowed. Thank you for your understanding and compliance.
*VENDORS:* PLEASE DO NOT PARK IN CHURCH LOTS, AT ALL! CUSTOMERS WILL LEAVE IF THEY CAN'T FIND PARKING!!
THIS INCLUDES YOUR HELPERS/VOLUNTEERS/WORKERS. THEY ARE NOT CUSTOMERS AND SHOULD NOT PARK IN THE CUSTOMER SPACES!!! Please carpool with possible or let workers know if they can't stay the whole day, to park next door and walk over!
DRIVE SLOW! I cannot stress how important it is to drive extremely slow in the market at all times. Kids, animals and adults are not expecting traffic in the market area or may forget during setup/breakdown and accidentally dart out. Please DRIVE SLOW!
PLEASE REMOVE YOUR TAPE!
Space numbers are marked in tape on the ground, between two marks that show the boundaries of the front of your space. PLEASE REMOVE ALL TAPE NUMBERS FROM YOUR SPACE BEFORE YOU LEAVE!
Once you arrive to unload, please unload as close to your booth as possible to allow other vendors to get around you, DON'T block the road. After unloading, move your vehicle to designated vendor parking BEFORE setting anything up...do NOT park in the church lots!
