Vendor Policy

Policies and Procedures

Terms & Conditions:

No political booths, please. The governing body reserves the right to revoke any registration with a full refund. 

Vendors will be entitled to a 10x10 space.  You will be responsible for bringing your own equipment and supplies, including but not limited to tables, chairs, tents, generators, cash boxes, etc.  Each vendor is also encouraged to bring signage displaying your business name and product pricing. 

Set up will not begin before 7:45 a.m., and we ask that vendors be set up and ready to sell no later than 8:45 a.m.  You must plan to move your vehicle off main street directly in front of Centennial Park (Warehouse St.) to allow for customers and food trucks prior to 8:45 a.m., so please unload and then set up accordingly. 

*Additional parking is available across 156th St. next to the police station. Accommodations for our disabled vendors can be provided with previous notice (email: benningtonchambercoord@gmail.com). 

Vendors must completely clean their booth space at the end of market, including transporting trash and recycling off site. 

Finally, it is the vendor's responsibility to be familiar with local, state and federal regulations governing the products they sell. Sampling must meet Douglas County Health Department code. The guidelines and application for a retail farmer's market permit can be found at www.douglascountyhealth.com. Additionally, non-produce vendors are responsible for collecting, reporting and paying sales tax.

By submitting an application, the vendor agrees to:

Secure all necessary permits and approvals to sell my product at a retail market.

Indemnify and hold harmless the City of Bennington, Bennington Chamber of Commerce, Bennington Community Foundation and their employees, volunteers and sponsors from any and all causes of action which may arise from the operation of the Bennington Farmer's Market.

Grant permission to the Bennington Farmer's Market to use any photos or video taken of my products or me while at the Bennington Farmer's Market to advertise and promote the event.

Abide by the rules and regulations set forth by the event's organizers.
