All vendors must complete an application
form and sign a liability waiver. The Town
reserves the right to reject any vendor.
·
The
picnic tables under the shelter will be reserved on
Saturdays until 7:00am for those vendors selling
perishable items
(e.g., fresh produce, cut flowers, fresh baked goods,
etc.). After 7:00am the tables are available on a
first-come first-served basis for all vendors.

the shelter. All vendors are welcome to bring
additional/your own tables and chairs.
[NOTE: There is no storage available at
the Town Hall Farmers’ Market site.]
·
Pricing is left to each vendor’s
discretion to be determined with price/demand and fair
market value criteria in mind. Vendors are encouraged to
keep prices attractive. It is up to individual vendors
to keep the appropriate sales records for IRS purposes.
·
The origin of those goods not grown/made
by the selling vendor will be clearly disclosed on the
item(s).
·
Anyone offering home-prepared foods for
sale must undergo a kitchen inspection. Contact
Jerretta Gilchrist of the FDA at 919-733-7366 to
schedule that inspection.
·
Baked goods and canned items must
be clearly labeled with the name and phone number of the
person(s) making the item. Ingredients must be
clearly listed on a label attached to each ‘package’ and
items should be pre-packaged/pre-wrapped in the quantity
you wish to sell (i.e., by the
dozen, half dozen, each, etc.).-
·
The
Town Council has not approved the sale of any meat or
dairy products, including eggs and cheese.
·
Each vendor is asked to keep his/her area
clean during the market hours and before leaving each
market day - sweep if needed, wipe down tables if
necessary.
·
Pick up all trash before leaving.
There is a dumpster on site, but it is only emptied once
a month so we are reluctant to allow perishable trash
which may cause a pest problem. Therefore, please plan
to take your discarded perishables, trash, and empty
boxes with you as you have in years past.
Have a
great selling season.

appreciate your support of our community Farmers’
