Pottstown FARM’s Mission
The Mission of Pottstown Farm & Artisan Regional Market (Pottstown FARM) is to provide access to fresh, locally grown agricultural products and handmade artisan goods to the Pottstown region. FARM also helps provide easy access to those fresh foods for those who are underserved in our region through a variety of programs & incentives.

Vendor Rules & Requirements
By continuing through the application process it is assumed that you agree to the following rules and regulations:

• As we continue to grow as a market, we primarily seek farmers who are self-producing. If you are a self-producing farm but also OCCASIONALLY work with other LOCAL farmers to sell their products, you will need to follow these guidelines:
  • Pottstown FARM does NOT offer exclusivity, understanding that choice appeals to shoppers. However, vendors are only authorized to sell listed items provided to Pottstown FARM for approval. This will prevent a saturation of overlapping items.
  • We encourage a full list of your products you wish to sell eliminating the need to have our FARM team review future additions to your stand.
  • Additions are always welcome, but we ask that you inform the team prior to bringing the items in.
• Each vendor is required to set up a straight-leg tent and have tent weights available at each market.
  • Tents create a cohesive shopping experience for our shoppers, protect products and provide clear boundaries. Tents with angled legs are prohibited because they can cause tripping hazards.
  • When applicable your tent legs must be against your neighboring vendors’ tent legs to ensure enough space for each booth.
• Timely Arrival and Set-Up/Closing.
  • To ensure a stress-free market, vendors are required to have ALL items within their allocated space no later than 8:30 am.
  • Market ends at 12 pm and vendors are not permitted to start breaking down their booths prior to that.
• Current insurance, current Board of Health Certifications and Cottage Law Licensing when necessary.
• The willingness to work cohesively with fellow vendors and the FARM team.
• The willingness to promote your own business.
  • Our marketing manager is here to support your efforts, but her focus is on highlighting FARM as a whole.
