Vendor Information

Vending at the Brigham City Farmers market is a breeze. Just click on the apply button above, fill out a short questionnaire, and pay a $5.00 application fee. Next, download the one-page application and get it back to us. The best way to return your signed application is to upload it to the same web page. All booth reservations and vendor management is handled online, so it is best if you use our portal; however, for those who prefer, we still accept paper applications.

We'll review your application, normally within 3 days,  and determine if the If the items you sell are a good fit. We only accept locally sourced handcrafted items of good quality. Imported items are allowed if you were involved in the design process. We allow only limited network marketed items, such as essential oils.

Farmers and vendors of agriculture products are automatically accepted, but registration is required.
Please note that if you sell even one item that is not a local agriculture products, you must complete a full application form and obtain a temporary business license.

Once accepted, you will pay your business license fee, and then select the dates you wish to vend along with your booth. It's all handled online, but if you need a little help, just stop by Consignology at 57 S. Main Street and ask for a paper application. You can also pay your application fee there if you are uncomfortable paying online. Take a look at our booth layout below, it a generalized representation of the Bill of Rights Plaza in historic downtown, and it is now updated for social distancing guidelines.

Brigham City does a great job of helping us with the temporary business licensing process, and you only need to complete a single one-page application that covers the entire season. However, summer is a very busy time for events and activities, so you'll need to submit your application at least 10 days prior to the first date you would like to vend. We'd make exceptions if we could, but this is a city licensing requirement. And don't worry about sales taxes, we report attendance at the market directly to the Utah State Tax Commission and they will send you the necessary forms to report your sales.

If you have any questions, please email us at farmersmarket@historicbrigham.org, message us on social media @historicbrigham, or call us at (435) 538-7949.

FOUR ESSENTIAL INGREDIENTS

We believe the secret to a sustainable and viable Farmer's Market is the result of four essential ingredients: farmers, food, artisan vendors and entertainment. As our market continues to grow, we will continue to invest in these four key areas.
  1. First and foremost, we want to have the very best agriculture vendors in the region, with a stated preference toward local farmers and sustainable farming practices.

  2. We seek out the finest food vendors serving high-quality prepared food for consumption at the market, or shortly thereafter.

  3. We emphasize a Utah First or locally-manufactured vendor lineup, and limit vendors offering low cost and/or imported items.

  4. Finally, we support cultural diversity through wholesome entertainment, including music, dancing, and the food arts (demonstrations, cook-offs, etc.).

FAQ

How do I become a vendor?
Booth prices for the 2020 season are $10.00 for artisan vendors and $5.00 for agricultural vendors. This includes a 10' X 10' space, with locations available generally on a first-come, first-served basis. At present, our Health Department is limiting any food prepared on site to Food Trucks.

Food trucks are encouraged to apply and will be allocated space in the county courthouse south parking lot or in the city parking lot, just north of the library, or in some cases right inside the market next to the city offices (electricity is available).

The cost of a sponsor booth is $25.00. This is a booth from which no goods or services are exchanged, but rather subscriptions or services that are sold for delivery outside the market. 

Vendors may reserve up to 2 booths per market day, and you may display your items in any manner you wish that is safe and sanitary. This includes canopies (must be secured with weights, no stakes are permitted), tables, carts, wagons, or even your vehicle (from the parking lot). Please note there are only a limited number of booths where you can vend out of the back of your vehicle. For safety reasons, your vehicle my not be moved until the market is closed. 

Our facilities, located at the Bill of Rights Plaza and Box Elder County Courthouse parking lot, are used to conduct government business Monday through Friday. Accordingly you cannot setup booths in advance, or leaving anything in the parking lot after the market.

In order to vend, you must be able to setup your booth between 3:00pm and market opening at 4:00p, and you must be able to completely take down your booth by 8:30p.  
How many vendors can we expect at the farmer's market?
We normally have about six local farm and orchard vendors (ranging in size from a single tree or small garden plot) and at least one of the local fruit stands along Highway 89 (which can operate hundreds of acres). We also have approximately 30 artisans who vie for spots each Saturday, but we limit both type and frequency of artisan vendors to ensure there are new items at the market each week. We have implemented guidelines that govern the sale of imported or mass-produced goods. 

We also try to have two to three food trucks, several fresh-food vendors, and always have a Crumb Brothers Bakery booth, to promote the best selection of local food. All of this combined with top-notch entertainment creates a memorable Saturday evening!
What are your guidelines for new vendors?
We don't want to make this complicated. If you have high-quality items to sell, especially locally-sourced produce, have an attractive display, and reasonable prices, then you are pretty much set. This is a true market environment. The way your goods are displayed, the manner in which you engage with customers, and the quality of your goods will determine your success. We are glad to provide individualized assistance if you contact us in advance.
