Vendors

New Vendors are always welcome! We do have a short vendor form with rules and regulations that must be read and signed before setting up at the market. Forms can be returned to Albany City Hall at any time. Or, you may fill out a form immediately prior to participating at the market. We do have a $5 per session vendor fee, which helps to cover our advertising and event insurance expenses. 

Products sold must be homegrown, handcrafted or handmade. Acceptable products include plants and flowers, produce, meat, other farm products (eggs, honey, etc.), baked goods (must follow state Cottage Laws), food service (must follow health department guidelines), handmade items (crafts, jewelry, etc.), woodworking, repurposed items, and artwork. If you have questions, please send an email describing your product to ecodev@albanymo.net

No direct sales, resale items, or pets/animals are allowed. 

About

The Albany Square Farmers Market has been in existence since May 6, 2021 when a small group of volunteers convinced a small group of vendors to meet on the downtown courthouse square to sell plants, flowers, eggs, honey and baked goods in time for Mother's Day. The market has evolved to include seasonal produce, food vendors, crafters and artisans. 

The Albany Square Farmers Market is an excellent place to test out new business ideas and products with low risk. Entrepreneurs of all ages are encouraged to sell their goods at the market!
