Your application must be approved BEFORE submitting payment/securing a space for the market. We limit vendors in each category to make sure they are successful.
Please note we are often sold out in most vendor categories. Farms and unique products are always in higher demand so we still have our application open. Most other categories are on a waiting list for potentially months to come. We often have a lot of applications to sort through so please allow at least 1 week for us to respond to your application before emailing to check back. Thanks!

- NO tear down/packing up prior to posted market closing time & drive with caution in market area!
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 can rent weights if we have them available or may be removed from the market without refund.
Payment is required in advance to hold your space! We often sell out within the first week 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! Indoor spaces are reserved for current indoor vendors to book first before we allow outdoor vendors to book.

Please email kim@gardenridgemarket.com for more info on becoming a sponsor for an upcoming market or activity! Thank you!
When securing your space as a vendor, you'll have the option to participate in our Scavenger Hunt Activity for just $10 (unless sold out)! For this activity, we give participating booths a themed "Character" matching the market theme to post on your canopy, facing customers. Kid's 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 for completing the Hunt. This gives kids a free, fun activity to enjoy & your booth additional exposure to potential customers! The market provides all of the materials and prizes for the activity. Win-win opportunity for all! :)
VENDORS: 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!
