Become a Vendor

Vendor Rules & Requirements
Application

The Williamston Farm & Artisan Market seeks farmers and artisans who care deeply about:

  • The quality of the food they raise/produce and/or the handmade products they produce
  • The customers who rely on them
  • Providing information to visitors to the market about the products on their table.
  • Respecting and abiding by the rules of the Market so that each Market day proceeds safely and smoothly for everyone.

If this describes you and your business, and you are interested in becoming a vendor with us this Market season, we would love to connect with you. A good way for you to do that is to download and complete the Vendor Application Form. You will also want to download and review the Vendor Rules and Requirements Manual. This is important because the Vendor Application requires that you have read and agree to these rules and requirements.

If you have any questions, you may also want to contact the Market Manager at marketmanager@sowinggrowth.org or phone 517-231-2124.

Once submitted, you should generally hear if your application has been accepted within one week of receipt. If you submit your application before March 31st, you will be invited to participate in a Pre-Market Vendor Orientation. The Market Manager will conduct a mid-season Market survey to see how things are going for you.

Vendor Resources

For the 2026 season, we invite vendors to visit the Williamston Farm & Artisan Market website for all essential information, including the Rules & Requirements, application, and payment details. Our vendor kickoff meeting will take place on March 22, and we encourage you to join us.

Invitation to the Vendor Kickoff here.

Vendors are welcome to submit applications after the kickoff meeting, which will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis based on space availability and product type. Once an application is approved by the Market Manager, an acceptance letter and invoice will be sent to confirm registration. We kindly ask that payment be submitted only after the acceptance letter and invoice have been received.

Daily Vendors

Please note: Vendors must have an approved application on file before getting an open spot. You may not expect to show up on market day to sell without prior approval of the Market Manager.

Licensing Info

If you are unsure whether or not you will need a license for our Market, please review the State of Michigan guidance referenced on the Vendor Application form and/or in the Vendor Rules & Requirements Manual.
