Apply to be a Vendor

The RDFM is a growers-only Market, representing over 90 local farmers who rotate seasonally at our summer and winter venues. Many of our growers are present every Market Saturday during the year, and some are early-or-late-summer only, depending on their crops. Applications are now being accepted for the 2013 summer season, which includes both Saturday and Wednesday Markets. In order to sell at the Winter Market, you must first be approved to sell during the summer season.

If you are interested in applying to be a vendor, or would like more information about our requirements, please contact us.

A Note about Baked Goods:

Vendors may sell baked goods only if they are selling other products that are grown or raised on their farm.

If the primary ingredients of the baked goods are raised by the vendor, the vendor is not required to sell other products.

Baked goods may be sold if they are produced by the vendor without the use of purchased pre-made doughs, batters, crusts, dry ingredient mixes, frostings, or fillings. Ingredients such as fats, oils, leavening, and salt must be added by the vendor.

All baked goods must meet Minnesota State regulations.
